I believe those have also brake callipers and handbrake mounted at the same point?
price is good and the product looks ok to me thinks...PB brakes, they also sell in the UK.

they are also on facebook (I follow them to see what they come up with)

Hi schimg. The cheapest way of doing it to mount a pair of spot callipers by fabricating a housing on the hub hi spec are inexpensive and not a bad unit , we used front discs 4 pot aps and a spot calliper with cosworth hand brake cables, works well but you need run six pots on front ideally with a bias control valve j

Think we have met...I think it was at Power about 4-5 years ago....? Probably wrong but thought you had the T350 from there...?

Anyway...as the challenge car I am trying to create will be a road goer...and I want to get it on the road then continue development am thinking a set of brakes that a 450 Cerbera runs..would be a sound starting point...if they stop my 450 cerbera well enough from silly speeds and they are balanced as a pair..they should do the trick Plus I have a set of rears and "brummiewedges" 6-bolt fronts ...with CL pads so should stop something that ways less than the cerbera on the road ...I will run a brake bias too..(there is also a set of 4 pots off a tuscan racer...or a set of brembo's that might come if they do I will sell the 6-bolt 450 fronts on...)

I think this set up you have done for the handbrake looks and sounds just right...was toying with trying to replicate a cerbera handbrake mechanism..cos I have the rear discs too....but after replacing the whole handbrake shabang on my 450...only to find that the handbrake is still crap I think this is a better solution...I'd appreciate more details..if possible?

cheers

Yeah dash is the same but in reverse if you see what I mean , and rack is geared the same , j

John, could you reveal some additional technical information & pics of the conversion (or are these business secrets ?) I'm particularly interested in the type(s) of (steering)-rack, pedals, break master cylinder, servo, etc. How and where did you attach them ?

Thanks !
