Hot VWs 55 Oval Brakes

Anybody got any info on the brakes on the 55 oval shown in the latest Hot VWS? Cool Brake setup, looks just like what I want. No information in Hot VWs though. Looks like it might be a 944 setup with Wilwoods similar to that of Franklins VW.

Anybody got any information?

Looks like a regular 944NA setup (using all the 944 front and rear parts) with the exception of the calipers. Good looking setup.

Lanner,

Do you think you could help in setting up the same thing?
Looks like Wilwood 4 pots...

Thanks,
Dave

Edit: I just ordered the Wilwood catalog.
I would love to powdercoat these and run them on the Ragtop.
Edit 2: I just found the .pdf for Calipers to DownLoad here:
http://catalogs.wilwood.com/_pdf/_tech/Calipers.pdf
Or the entire tech catalog: http://catalogs.wilwood.com/_pdf/_tech/TechCatalog.pdf
(right click, save as...)
