looks nice but you can buy those broakets for 10 bucks http://www.speedwaymotors.com/p/3348,8_Weld-On-Flat-Mount-Caliper-Bracket.html

they make em for all kinds of different calipers too http://www.speedwaymotors.com/m/8_Race-Brakes.html

Mine are just a little nicer because of the bolt holes used to locate them. They would probably be strong enough even if only bolted on but I plan on welding mine. Day Motorsports charges 20 bucks each for their bolt on brackets but mine is a better design IMO.

Well I got the plates remade in 3/8. They came out really nice. I tried to put them on and got everything situated right. Went to put the wheel on and it hits the caliper. I'm running a 15 inch weld pro star. I grinded it down and got everything to work but it's still a little too close for comfort.

I'm trying to find a rotor that's a smaller diameter but am having a hard time. So far I've tried rotors off a few Cadilacs, Blazers, 82 Trans AM, and some other stuff but nothing will fit over the end of the axle flange. The flange is just over 6 inches and all these rotors are just shy of 6 inches inside the hat area. Any recomendations? I need something that has a 1 inch wide disc, 2.4 height, and about 10 inch diameter. Right now it's 12 and it's just too big for a 15 inch wheel.

I figure if I do start selling these plates I will make with them both sets of holes so you can put bigger rotors on if you can fit them.
