Reply to "Stock Brake Caliper Modification"

Finally, here's a view of the caliper mounted up.

The clearance of the hydraulic line is great, and everything is neat and clean.

Please don't make fun of my loose safety wiring. I did my best. In addition to the safety wiring, I have the lock tabs as well. Talk about belt and suspenders.

PS> Make sure you know what you are doing when you mess with your brakes - have an expert check your work if you aren't sure. Brakes are serious business.

I am running Porterfield R57 street pads, with vented Mustang rotors. I went to the braided steel lines all the way around, and added a proportioning valve to the rear brake circuit.

I am very happy with the braking of my car.

PS - Thanks again to Wade for his help with the fabrication on this project, and especially for the emergency machining support on the banjos.
