On my 73 they stopped just fine..nothing like a new car of course but I've had to make a few panic stops and was always suprised at how well it slowed the big whale down.

11" rotors will do all you need to do unless your one of those road rally guys and like to come down from 150 MPH all the time. I can't see the need for 12" rotors in an E-body, but I guess if you can get them under there, why not right? The General Lee stops just fine on A-body discs...
