[Roadsters] Roadster Dunlop brakes

There are a number of British companies that manufacture and sell Dunlop
MKII brake cylinder assemblies for the '60s Jaguars that supposedly used the
same Dunlop cylinder as the 1600 and 2000 roadsters.  Here's an example
link.

-assemblies 

Anyone have any experience with or thoughts on these?  They are more
expensive than the OEM Dunlops being sold by various Roadster vendors, but
while they have the Dunlop MKII dimensions, the internals are in keeping
with modern disk brake technology.  The pistons don't seem to look quite
like those on the Datsun though.

 

Also, does anyone know if Gerardo Magna is still operating Fairlady Parts.
I was looking at his Wilwood conversion kit at
http://www.fairladyparts.com/page15.html and tried to contact him at the
email address on the website, but have had no reply.

 

Thanks / Dan
