[DeTomaso] Fw: [SCPOCA] Front vented rotors

[John Taphorn]

The O'Reilly purchased rotors that I listed are two piece.  I knocked out 
the mustang studs and replaced them with the Pantera studs. The Pantera 
studs fit as if made for them.

The application of the two piece Oreilly's vented rotor on the rear is 
inboard.  The car has a four piston Sierra caliper a the rear.  It was 
necessary to mill an 1/8" off the spacer to center the caliper on the rotor. 
I had the spacers milled for $25 at a local machine shop.  I do not know the 
interface with the stock caliper.

Perhaps, you can save $10 bucks on-line, However, none of the on-line sites 
I saw offered a lifetime warranty and if they did - shipping costs would be 
expensive due to weight.
