"Got some commodore calipers, appears the Stanza girlocks won't work as they are wider than the commdore caliper mounting frame, so will need to push forward with the commodores. Also disregard my comment on page 2 around VT calipers, I had a mind blank..."

"Confirming VT caliper mounts are too wide to bolt to the stanza calipers. Also had a R31 rear caliper and confirming the bracket is too narrow to bolt to the stanza caliper.   Does anyone have an old commodore bits they are using I can buy / swap?"
