The GT6 caliper mount will not fit a Spitfire vertical link if my memory
serves me correctly anyway. When you change from Spit brakes to GT6 brakes you
have to have the whole wheel end to do it. Caliper, rotor, and stub axle and
vertical link etc. I don't know what the bolt spacing is though.

Arrgh.  Copy / pasted through notepad this time.

I received this question and have no clue what the answer is (and of course
don't have any GT6 front caliper mounts).  Anyone on this list know the
answer?  See below.

Thanks, Tony Drews


Dear Sir,

I have a Lotus Europa that I race in Vintage and am upgrading the front
brakes.

A fellow competitor has an Europa with Wilwood calipers and GT6 discs. The
Wilwood caliper has a 3'5" spacing between the mounting holes. These calipers
fit directly onto the competitors caliper mount. He believes that his caliper
mounts are from a GT6 with a 3'5"
spacing between the bolts.

My car has Spitfire caliper mounts with a 3.25" spacing between the bolts.

Do you know if the GT6 caliper mounts have the 3.5" spacing and will they fit
onto the Spitfire vertical link.

If the GT6 mounts will work, do you have a pair available.

Please forward price and availability.

Thanks for your help


Peter Taft
