    I have used ones from O'Reilly. I think they are around $60 each.

    ps, what happened to the description of piston diameter in the rules?
    Newer pbr's were described/allowed for fords only?
    38mm vs 40 or 44mm?

    On the anal-retentive side:

    The Ford version of the caliper brackets are dimensionally the same as the GM brackets except for the bolt size (12mm vs. 14mm).

    The later PBR calipers use a slightly larger diameter pistion than the early PBR calipers (38mm vs. 40) This will cause a small shift in bias and pedal feel.

    The later PBR calipers also have a different thread pitch for the fluid line. Might require a different banjo bolt.

    The later PBR calipers are a different casting than the early Corvette, 1LE calipers with much more bracing in bridge area. This makes for a better caliper but with some wheel fittment issues possible.

    The '06 rulebook used to say I couldn't use the 40mm.

    I can deal with the hardware changes.

    You didn't mention the bling paint and the ponies on the side 8)

    Thx RP.
