No, I modified my Minisport 4 pot calipers to accept the bigger discs; I will make an adapter to space the calipers out. (Not milled yet)

Just wondering how you did your oil drain from the cyl head? It seems you've welded a plate to extend the engine blocks deck, and tapped into the oil gallery?
It that correct? If so, I thought you can't weld cast iron?

You can get cast rods for arc welding, i used to weld up castings years ago, in a previous life.

The oil drain ports do start inside the area of the block so I think you can get away with just enlarging and slighty offset drilling the original returns?

Yes, plates were welded on. My engine shop loved me for that when he skimmed the block after that. (material became a little hard at this area *smiley*)
