Default Install of ISF BBK on my 350

Well, today is the day that I have been waiting over six months for. I finally had the time and $$ to have my ISF BBK installed on my 350. It has been a long time coming, and I must say that I am THRILLED with the results. BIGG thanks to Tommy over at Music Box for an outstanding job well done. If you are looking for a knowledgable person to work on your ride, be sure to give him a call at 626-823-2853. Attached are some pics, let me know what you think. And I know, BBK don't stop the car, the tires do, But damn, they sure do look sexy......

Looks great! I've been tossing between these and the f-sports. Definitely leaning your way now.

Did you get new hubs or did you use the ones from your 350

Got the ISF hubs and dust shields. Stock 350 hubs don't work. Worth every penny!!

I realize that the 350 hubs dont work. The calipers will bolt on but you will end up with major wear issues and possibly worse if the 350 hubs are used.

I added my ISF Front and Rear conversion last year and love it.

Congrats on a great pickup

Loks clean. What did you do with your 350 fronts?

Traded them to Tommy at Music Box. Hit him up, he may still have them at a great deal. Just took another look at the setup and I must say, perfect. Looks awesome with my rims. Not some bright blue in your face ****. Loving it..

The ISF brakes require the hubs to be used from a ISF when putting them on the IS350/250 because the measurements are not the same. The track of the ISF is wider than that of the 250 and 350. This is controlled by the hubs. It is a very easy fix but it is not an inexpensive one.
