Sorry to hijack the thread. Interesting to here about the Alfa brakes as a direct replacement on boge struts. In the video the rear brakes were replaced with 3.2 rear callipers. I have a 1973 T with M callipers front and rear. Will 3.2 rear brakes fit or do I have to replace the arms? If I wanted to keep the arms what callipers upgrade could I do ?
Many thanks

The rear arms will be fine! doing the same with a 69car as the solid rotors are rather expensive!
To all of those that expressed an interest in the Alfa callipers I have just dug them out of the box and will send over pictures shortly

Thanks for the advice everyone,
Looks like I've got a way forward, I've had an offer for a pair of struts with 3.5 spacing that I'm hoping to collect soon thanks to a DDK member. Plan is to use them with some use some new 3.2 callipers. Like that idea of having a Porsche setup that I know works well. Nice to have the option in the future to fit S callipers if I want to make it more period correct.
