Jack,

1. I've been running 11 years without the boots with no issues. 
Otherwise, they tend to melt from the heat! See the Moss catalogue page 
38 "Brakes" for a diagram as to the difference in the piston 
configuration for fitting the boots.
2. I'm using the SS pistons (from Moss) to minimize seal failure.
3. I've split my calipers with no problems. Torque rating for the inner 
bolts - 75 lbs. and the outer bolts - 45 lbs.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Allen
