No instructions on bedding the pads, actually I can't ever remeber seeing instructoins on bedding any brake pads I have ever bought.
But when I bought my first set of Stillen/Brembo about 6 years ago, I called the the manufactuer to ask some questions about fitment, we had put larger calipers on the car at the time, but in the course of our conversation they suggested that I go easy just normal driving for the first 500 miles or so to give the pads and the rotors an opputunity to go through several heating and cooling cycles, and to avoid very hard braking if at all possible. That advise worked well, the pads lasted forever, they were still on the car 3 years later when I sold it. So now it's just a habit I follow.
Powerslot makes a good product, and the Hawk pads have an excellent reputation as well, deffinately a solid combo. ..and yeah the SS brake lines are a must have. I would think on our big heavy trucks, the difference would be very noticable.
