You know, I looked at their kit and it is well thought out. It is using the GRANADA rotor and 65/67 KH 4-piston calipers.

There is no description of valving but this is better (IMO) than either the GRANADA or TORINO swap. Both of those do present problems and this kit uses the original spindles.

And I see no reason it cannot be used on PASS CAR,
