Intersted. When you say NOS -- How old? Are the seals good or will they be dry and brittle from sitting 30 years? Previously installed on any other car? I'd want the version for solid rotors. Looking for stright up bolt on for 3" struts.

These are for vented rotors. To the best of my knowledge none were made for solid rotors. Guessing you could take out spacers and use new bolts. Brand new parts , no way of knowing manufacture date. Parts are not in US.

Thanks Mark. Looks I have more research to do, for some reason I though they had a caliper for solid rotors.

Seal kits are cheap and easy to install.
Yes you can remove the spacers for use on solid rotors but may need shorter bolts as they use partially threaded bolts. With spacers removed the short bolts work in place of the long bolts. Bolts a common cap head 12.8 grade bolt.
I think these only work on late struts unless you machine the ears.

@bdstone914

Thanks - Maybe that is what I saw somewhere. Good point on the seals. If the caliper had to be split to remove the spacer, at that point the seals are a cinch to replace.

Some of the Alfa calipers do not have Brembo on them.
