From what I've read on the Justcommodores forum they don't seem to be overly fussed with them.

I threw my VN rear brakes and axles away.

I was told the speedway boys are using VN discs now but you can buy them brand new for $150 or so, and the rear discs uses brake shoes as well (for hand brake)

There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

My engineer buddy grabbed my VN diff and brake setup as he's shortening it for the Ford Pop he's building for his kids. It's a light vehicle and will only be running a 4cyl of some variety so will probably be ideal.
