mfg Posted October 27, 2018 Report Posted October 27, 2018 When Steve Blake decided to phase out the original Studebaker Avanti Bendix-Dunlop disc brakes, he first considered using the popular Turner disc brake system......True?
scottgriggs Posted October 29, 2018 Report Posted October 29, 2018 False. Was the Turner system even offered in the early 1980's? Avanti Motor Corporation ended up using GM brake hardware, I believe.

Avanti Motors looked at the Turner disc brake setup for the 1984 models before designing their own 'in house' caliper mounting bracket, which utilized '82 (up) Camaro rotors and calipers.
