[DeTomaso] Caliper bolts--when was the last time you checked?

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Last time I checked, they were Damn expensive and I wasn't into paying Ferarri prices.  Has that changed?

Yes, it assumes you have the metal tabs.  But they are quite inexpensive
from the vendors if you don't have them any longer.

              I wonder if that assumes you have the metal tabs also?  With
the potential heat cycling, it seems like some form of hi temp locktite (if
there is such a thing) or safety wire would be a good thing.

                  Mike,
                  What is the recommended torque value for the caliper
bolts?
