I have a Factory Five Cobra, basically a track car. Very fast, built. I am limited by my own choice to keep the 15" GT-40 wheels when I sdrive it on the street. So, I am looking for the best brakes that can fit inside.
I am currently using the Lincoln LSV front calipers (larger piston in Fox-type caliper), and use HAWK Racing pads. It works, but it makes alot of heat, even with brake cooling ducts. I cook at least aone set of calipers a year, and one to two sets of rotors. It does stop the car, but I am always wanting for more brakes.
I'll add that it is a manual set-up, with 94 GT discs in rear, HAWK Blue pads out back to create a mechanical bias to the back.
My question is:
Is there a kit or dual-piston caliper that can work with a Fox spindle (with no major mods), fit inside a 15" wheel, and have HAWK racing pads available?
Many Thanks from a classic Mustang guy and cobra racer.
