I have calipers, will they work?

i have a set of wilwood powerlite brake calipars that i purchased for another application and never used. i was wondering if anyone made brackets to mount these calipars to an 02 MCS. they are wilwood part #120-8726. i have the wilwood pads and i need new rotors anyways. thanks

Contact Todd@TCE, he's a vendor here on NAM. I'm sure he could help you out with determining whether those calipers will work or not

Piston size is ok but you better dbl check the application width....up to 1/2" wide rotors. Those are good parts for some rear applications but really are meant for smaller formula cars and sports racers, not street machines. Ebay 'em I guess.
