Converted to disc from drum . No noticable difference in mileage.

I don't care about better or worse fuel mileage, there is no comparison between drum and disc brakes. After I Installed disc brakes I would never go back to drums.

Kodiak seems to be the best. They use off the shelf GM calipers so new pads are cheap and available at any auto parts store. If I remember correctly Dexter (the other one) uses propriety stuff that is quite expensive.
