Hi Allan
Couple of Q's
Are your Airhearts using the original round hockey puck style pads ?
Also what diameter are your discs, Im just about to get some new ones
machined up?
Any pictures of your setup?
Thanks

Trevor, the way FIA walue documentation is: documents, pictures, articles
from the when the car was new, count significantly more than newer
material. You have to find historic proof for the components in the car.

Many thanks for responding. Were they the original type 4 pot calipers
or were they the modern ones?

In the never ending search for a new brake caliper to replace the
original 4 pot Airhearts which will still fit within the Bobsy wheel rim on
the SR2, has anyone tried a modern Airheart 175X2QC11?
It appears to have similar dimensions and specification to the
original, although Airhearts say it is now for an 11.4 ins rotor diameter.
This rotor is too big for the Bobsy rim but I wonder if the (unavoidable)
overlap of the pad on a smaller rotor (say 10 ins) would make a material
difference?
I cannot get one this side of the pond to try them for size as no one
sells them in Europe.
Wilwoods would have been a much easier solution but the historic racing
authorities in Europe are reluctant to accept them.
