What do you mean by 'early' ?

Early 'M' caliper (3" spacing for mounting bolts):

Early 'S' (alloy) caliper (3.5" spacing):

The M clipers are cast iron - used on non-S models from '65 - '75

For completeness, worth noting that the calipers shown are for vented front discs..the spacer is the givaway..

Kind regards
