Unless John has changed them, I ran the old clam shell TR3 calipers in 
that car.  I had bought all the parts to switch to later TR4 calipers 
using the "later is better principal".  Then I compared the pad area and 
got advice here, so I stayed with the early design. I always thought the 
brakes were an advantage compared to other pre-1961 cars I raced against 
in CVAR. Sorry, I know the original post was for TR4, so this would be 
backdating.
