Not thick enough.
.433 in I am looking at another option that should be a bolt on upgrade to an .810 vented rotor and a four pot caliper. I'll keep you posted when I have the other parts to compare to. |

how funny.....I spoke to a Wilwood engineer a few weeks ago that gave me a sneak peak (pdf file) of their new line of 4 piston calipers.... radial mount: 1.38", 1.25" and 1.00" bores available....for rotors .35/.50 and .79/.85 thick...diameter 10.25 to 11.00".... pretty cheap at $150 each (forged as well) thanks for the numbers Paul.... |

How about a bolt on 4 piston brake upgrade with an .810 vented rotor with a floating rotor, studded hubs all for less than 400$. You will need a bigger master though. Should know something in the next week or so.
