Guys, thanks much for the feedback.
Mike, I'm glad you shared that about clearance. I had no idea. Was the clearance problem radial or on the face or both?

What kind of brakes are you using? Assuming it is something more modern, you won't have clearance issues. Just tell Phil Schmidt what you are using. Girling Comp brakes are very large, much fatter than most modern brake options. Phil will space them accordingly.

Good to hear, thanks Mike. I am either going to use an OE mustang or low profile Wilwood caliper on the front and either the OE T-bird caliper or Wilwood on the rear. A rear Wilwood will require some bracket figuring and the piston used in the t-bird seems to be a good choice. The brakes on this car are going to be based on math and what works rather than who made it and doesn't.
