Garth,

I'm sure Per who posted to the board doesn't mind if I share the pics with you.

I haven't tried it myself but I saw a car so equipped in August last year and now Per has repeated the swap. I think the piston area is a bit smaller than stock but it didn't seem to be noticeable to the owner I met in August. Here in Europe you can get performance brake pads from all the major brake pad manufacturers (marketed over here that is) for these calipers.

>   Suggests Volvo 240 (91-92) brake calipers as an inexpensive alternative to the Pantera calipers. And, they have an ample supply of racing pads available.
