Got Wilwood?

[245gti]

Yup...

The left ones are the Forged Billet Superlites that we'll be making our kits for. The top right is a pair of IR-GT calipers we bought because they were cheap and thought they might work. Turns out Wilwood doesn't make everything equal and they won't work with our brackets. They'll go back on eBay, listed correctly this time. The middle right is a pair of SL6-R calipers. Ian ran some SL6 calipers on the front of his V8 740 last year and loved them. 6-piston, radial mount. Incidentally, the radial mount brackets place them in exactly the same place as the Forged Billet Superlites so they'll be on the 122 as soon as we get brackets and hats made for the 240 rear end. The bottom right are a pair of Superlite III calipers we got with the IR-GT's. Not quite what we need but they're ready to bolt on, complete with pads. Unfortunately, we don't know what pads they are and they won't work with the FSL calipers anyways...

My GF has the same kittah fountain.

Those calipers look awesome, what's the wheel clearance on them to your 122?

Lots of clearance. Of course, I'm running 17" fwd offset with a spacer...

The 122 stuff on Dale's car is a bit complicated. Really, the front is an 1800 setup, and the rears are a 240. We built custom hats/spacers for the front hubs, using ARP studs cut down to allow 240 turbo lugs & locking lugs, and allowing the FWD wheels to work. Everything is hubcentric, unlike the stock 122/1800 stuff. We then built big beefy caliper brackets that bolt to the stock 122 uprights. We also chopped off all the brackets from a 122 rear axle and installed them on a 240 rear axle, suitably fortified with a #411 True Trac and 4.10 gears.

Check out our thread in For Sale if you're interested in front/rear Wilwoods for your 740. Stay tuned for 240 stuff, which will come eventually. If you'd like 240 stuff PM me so I have an idea of how much interest we might have, if you'd like 740 stuff PM Dale 'cause we'll be taking orders for these soon.

Dale, you need to take pix of your rotors...
