Barrie, 
I believe this gives you a clone to the Factory MGB-GT V-8 brakes.  The
calipers actually use one side from the MGB and one side from the Triumph.
This gives you a caliper with a wider slot to allow the use of the 1/2"
thick nonventilated Factory MGB-GT V-8 brake rotors.  Be aware that you need
to replace the square section O-ring seal and the securing bolts if you
separate calipers and reassemble them.
Cheers, 
Paul Kile

In Roger Williams book "How to give your MGB V-8 power" it describes on
page 90 an upgrade to brakes using Triumph 2000/2500 calipers.  Has anyone
done this and with what results?
