5 lug/ pinto swap

Hey guys,  My brother in law is building a strip/street car (78 pinto) already has it caged and mini tubbed but is wondering if ya"ll might know a semi CHEAP? way to swap to 5 lug for the front rotors, is there a year of car with 5 lug (rotors) that will work or is there more to it? It is basically the same as a mustang II just a little different...........:hick:

Any responses would be appreciative, and Thanks, Joe

The Mustang II/Pinto front suspension is very popular with hot rod builders, so you should be able to get rotors for it in any bolt pattern you want...
