Starting to rebuild Invader 3, rebuilt chassis front axle rebuilt with polybushes. The question is has any body fitted Granada calipers with Capri discs?

The Granada calipers should bolt straight on but there is no real advantage when spacer kits are available for the Cortina ones.
Those wishing to go further usually go for 4pots (perhaps expensive but bolt on option) or along with fitting 14" wheels and more machining Sierra discs and calipers.

Even better, call Phil Ivimey, number is in the Rarebit, he has done many conversions, and probably has all the part numbers memorised by now...
