I was planning on ordering the set with the integrated handbrake ( http://www.motamec.com/wilwood-forged-powerlite-4-pot-brake-caliper-handbrake-cable-attachment-13mm.html ). What would be the best front Caliper to go with the 1" piston that comes with these?

Received a package in the mail today containing a pair of Wilwood brake adaptors.

I really like them in the silver aluminum... is there a coating on them.

They are just bare aluminum. I think Luke did a run of them anodized but I didn't have a chance to find anyone in the area or buy the setup to do it.

That's cool.

I have a set of Luke's adapters, and yes they are gold anodized. I was actually going to strip it off and polish them.

Now I can just polish these...

Hey guys, for those of you with Wilwoods on a pre-88 c900, could you share what model numbers you went with for the Wilwood calipers? Do you need to buy the Wilwood rotors as well? What did you do for a handbrake? Is there really a bolt-on kit that can be installed on the front? Still thinking about upgrading to Wilwoods on my '80 900t with '87 front hubs and vented rotors.

Polish away, but you can't see the bracket at all on the car... I have a set of Luke's in bare aluminum, and they are totally hidden behind the rotor.
