I was rummaging through my parts inventory last night when I came across something that I forgot I had, particularly some NOS Ferodo brake pads. I've got a set for both front and rear.
Well, I started to do some investigation on these. The Bird catalog lists these as NLA. But, I was intrigued by the description... QUOTE FERODO pads offer excellent braking characteristics including less brake dust, less noise, more longevity, and better braking performance. All around, a better pad and worth the upgrade. We recommend these for the weekend racer, or someone looking for a little better performance on the street. To use Mintex rear pads, you must have one retaining pin hole enlarged. First question, are these pads that much better as described? Second question, the rear pads do need to have one of the retaining pin holes enlarged to be used in the stock 914-4 rear calipers. Does anyone know the best procedure for doing this? |
