Now that the "pressure" is off :-)....

Does anyone else care to speculate how detrimental the effect is of having the 
smaller Spitfire brakes (wheel cylinders notwithstanding) on a car originally 
equipped with larger diameter (and perhaps width?) brake drums and shoes?

Oh, and Marty, are these Spitfire drums, etc., at least mounted on the longer 
Spitfire 1500/late non-Rotoflex GT6 Mk3 axles? Or do you now have a 
"narrow-rear-track" GT6?
