Fitting Cosworth calipers.

[Bomber Denton]

I understand one the mounts have been drilled from 8mm to 10mm you need a 2mm spacer to mount.

Will a washer do the job O.K?

When I did the old M16 caliper spacing for vented discs on my Westy I had to space them over a bit. I used 2 or 3 washers until the spacing was correct - never had a problem!

Got Redstuff pads in mine now, work great!

Seems quite a popular mod now, cheap and easy.

Did mine when I fitted t'spiders.
