....Sure, here you go. 15 inch rotor, 6 piston caliper and this setup goes lock to lock without any interference issues.




Nice pic Andy. What size wheel does this require?




Until Andy chimes in..

I would guess at 20", perhaps 19" as well.

An 18" aluminum outer is 16.225" ID, so that gets abit tight, depending on how thick the caliper is over the edge (diameter) of the rotor

That's why I'm posting. You got any of them solutions for me?

Now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout! But for my purposes, I think all I need is a short link. I only need a $20 solution...not a $2000 one.

For the next one I do, I'll put the calipers rearward.

Actually that solution is more like $4000 for the brakes plus you need 19 inch rims and then there is the custom anti-sway bar and the custom strut rods. The Edelbrock shocks are off the shelf though and so are the Firm Feel upper control arms.

Here is a much less expensive solution. This is a DynoPro caliper which is the only Wilwood caliper with weather seals on the pistons. It is a radial mount caliper and there are brackets for either 11.75 rotors or 11 inch rotors. These calipers are small enough that they don't cause any interference issues. They don't work nearly as well as the big Baer stuff of course but they don't cost a small fortune either.
