The problem with this is that its big old heavy parts, I'll stick with my light weight Wilwood set up, it uses 1/4 thick vented rotors and light calipers

I agree they are kind of on the heavy side, but they are cheap and you can buy everything except the brackets at the local part store.

A tad heavier? LOL, they're a lot heavier, and not much lighter than drums. The drums also stop as good and maybe better, so without the weight savings what's the point?
