Has anyone checked out Wilwoods Combination Parking Brake Caliper? It is a radial mount and has a 34mm bore. Might be a great way to get bigger brakes and keep the parking brake. Now if I could only source the brackets to mount to the tarailing arm.

You are going to find out what we already know. If you set the brake with the rotor hot, it won't release when it is cold. Mike Floyd had this setup on his 914, and he had to beat the calipers with a hammer to get them to release in the morning.
He now has a 911 style park brake. |
