[Healeys] disk brake sizes

[Michael Salter]

Hi Pieter,
There are differences in the thickness and the hub offset. I believe with a
bit of work on a lathe late discs can be machined to fit the early cars but
not the reverse.

Can anybody tell me the physical difference between BJ7 front rotors and the
later BJ8 rotors. I haven't got easy access to a BJ8 set but the catalogues
I am looking at seem to have the diameter/hat height the same so the only
difference could be in the thickness and the stud pattern,

Thanks again for any help,

Pieter
