Anybody have a part number? I want to order from one of my suppliers. Thanks. As I recall they were stock on 1975-1976 Alfa Spiders. The next year car had the same caliper in steel. I was the one that discovered they work on 911 suspension when I found to Alfa's in a pick a part yard and bought the calipers. Eric sucessfully bought up all the cores out there and pissed off the Alfa guys. Seems that Alfa abandoned the aluminum caliper for the same alledged flexing problem the S calipers have. Never bought into how big the problem is if they stop the car fast. Bruce |

In a pinch you could use '71- '72 VW bus pads by minor grinding some mounting bolt clearance on the inboard pad. |
