1. has anyone used engineered components, inc disc brake conversion on a 69 Charger?
2. can anyone recommend a cheap, complete, and very easy to do for a novice, disc brake conversion for a 69 Charger?

I have the ECI kit on the front of my 67...

Absolutely none... Super easy to install, and the kit works just great... and all of the replacement parts are over the counter items... Mopar bearings, Chevy Big Piston Calipers and pads... The rotors are Trans Am rotors drilled to fit Mopar however. ECI sells the pre-drilled replacements, or you could just drill them out yourself. The folks at ECI told me that they have never sold a replacement rotor.

I did a post on the installation once... if I can find it I'll post the link here. Either way, if you have any other questions I'll be here to answer them.

I had SSBC Force 10 drilled & slotted rotors & calipers, for drum spindle w/disc conversion worked out great & easy install on a 68 RR... I would assume it would be just as simple on the Charger... It came with everything to install... If I was to do it again though, I would get a different distribution valve w/proportioning valve built in, for disc brake front & drum brake rear, in instead of a separate adjustable proportioning valve for the rear drum brakes...
