Cobrabill: If its done correctly it won't be skimping. If they work on a Shelby GT350 in Vintage Car racing, and were good enough for OEM application on thousands of Mustangs and Fairlanes they will certainly work for what I have in mind. It's only "Skimping" if you do it incorrectly.

RustyBob I've got access to Cad Design and a CNC machine shop. The rotors are already done and in use, just looking to improve & upgrade the calipers. I have the cable to adjust the brake bias if & when necessary. From what I can see I would need would to design the brackets to correctly anchor the Calipers in position.

terry mason: Do you know what the difference is between 65 & 66? Bad weather is very infrequent here, the car would never intentionally see rain. Do you know of a source for the adapters that will fit the Mustang II spindles and utilize Granada Rotors. Thanks for the compliment.
