AS I recall the TR6 brakes are pretty much the same as TR3/4. I used the
Wilwood Ultralights in my TR3 and later in Peyote until the very astute tech
inspector at the Monterey Historics gagged. The ones I used bolted right in
place, no mods at all. Sorry, don't have the number, but they are clearly
intended to replace girlings, so I'd ask for that. I just measured the
mounting holes and disk slot depth and went to race central with my
calipers.
The calipers were wonderful--lots of brakes and lots of modulation. Very
progressive feel and so powerful I never felt them fade much, even in long
races on tight tracks. Highly recommended if you can get away with them.

Subject: TR6 Front Brake Calliper Upgrade
Does anyone have experience / information etc. with fitting of new/upgrade
brake callipers to a TR6? I am thinking of the 4 spot callipers, in say
Willwood, AP Racing or Brembo. Is there a preference of manufacturer? Is one
manufacturer / style easier to retro-fit than the another? E.g. mounting
brackets, spacer's etc.
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
