Thumbs up

Thank you very much for your input kdanie.
This morning I found an article discribing a very similar combo like mine. Even the chosen wheels look the same but the car is a 356 Speedster replica. The article is posted at www.ricola.co.uk ''brakes'' section. There are lots of other interesting tech tips also. Beautiful site Ricola!
I think I'll do the setup and see what happens. If ý should run into trouble with the braking balance I'll try the later 1973 type 3's larger front calipers and pads. Hope this works out ok. Next would be my '74 GL 1303 with this brake combo.
One last question.
How about using Talbot Horizon front calipers with the type 3 or 1303 front discs? Ýs there a big difference in stopping power compared to stock? Has anyone used Talbot brakes up front?
I'm on a tight budged and I want to keep everything bolt on and avoid machining whenever possible. I also like the idea that everything would look as if it were factory fitted.

Thanks again.
