Reply to "Vintage racing brakes"

This is what the T-bird caliper pistons look like.

They are 1-15/16", 1.9375", 49.125mm. There are 4 of them per caliper.

The clamping pressure in many cases is better than expensive race brakes that are available.

These are not much heavier then the stock Girlings are. Certainly lighter than the Group 3 iron Girlings.

Why does anyone WANT to pay $2,000, per caliper? Beats me.
