Hopefully the info below will be good for someone looking at the calipers



I have Princess caliper's on my 7, with green stuff pads

They are a direct replacement for M16 on the Cortina stub axle, but are quite a bit heavier than the standard M16

Best to use 257mm discs (I don't) as use standard Cortina discs, but the pad will overhang the disc a few mm, but is not a problem

Thanks for that, can also be widened to take thicker discs, spacers on e bay for about £30. A cheap up grade if your engine/ car needs it.
