indeed, the standard, heavier cav / cally is capable (indicated speed)

As for the brakes, they are pretty much the same as V6 brakes, the earlier calibras and cav turbos used 284mm discs as apposed to 288mm discs found on later models and the V6's

all of the above are obviously 5 stud and the discs will need re drilling, however i think LMF sell the discs already 4 stud. And the fiat coupe turbo discs i think can be used?

other options now include the meriva etc and alot of the newer models.. As far as im aware the 4 stud jobbies are still a bolt on coversion with no modifications required. Worth researching further imo.. as i may be wrong

i agree, basically same size, but smaller piston, so better pedal feel to the v6's
