Rear brakes and e-brake... Options

[edhall]

Hi guys, just joined as I've just got a 914. Need a little help with parts compatibility and wondered if anyone could help?

Car is a 74 914 with a 3.2 Carrera engine, 901 trans, and it stops with 911 SC vented rotors and calipers all round. Thing is, it doesn't have an emergency brake. The car was built in California but here in the uk it cannot be road legal without one.

Do I go 911 style drum in disc or 914 style ebrake on a calipers?

Thanks in advance

To all those using brake parts sourced from Rockauto, O'Reillys, your FLAPS, and other non-P-car specialist sources: Please don't drive on streets where I, or anyone I know or like, may be driving. I don't care if you choose to use crap for your brakes, but I DO care that you might hit me when they inevitably fail..............

I'm just not hearing about brake failures anywhere in the news.
People hitting the gas instead of the brakes, yes.

That's because there haven't been any. If there had been the National Traffic Safety Administration would be all over it, as would every plaintiff's attorney in the country, not to mention those company's own attorneys and insurance carriers. I think the Cap'n is exaggerating (Krustily) to make a point.
