Sierra Cosworth calipers I think, I have put EBC cross drilled ( or counter sunk) and grooved discs on all round
Ceramic red stuff pads on the front and green stuff pads on the back excellent!

Probably too late now, but instead of Motorcraft pads, try Mintex 1144 pads all round. A far superior pad with more bite that works from cold and does not overheat as quick and there cheaper too!!

You definitely want good fast road pads, M1144 are fast road pads with the right temperature range and have the advantage of being cheap, but imo there are far better compounds out there. For example Tarox XF and DS2500 have a much better feel.
