Ur the man... But dang... The s10 caliper is $11 and the caddi caliper is $100..! Damn wat a difference... I still like the idea of having my ebrake for the panic brake factor... Another thing I want 2 look in2 is the width of the different rotor options... Meaning how much the calipers is gonna have 2 push the pads to reach the rotors...
Mine has about 1/4 of inch on the piston side. I will get a pic when I get home to show you travel

monster: are you referring to leezards line lock comment? its not a caliper its more or less for burnouts in racing to get your tires work. applies pressure to the front brakes but leaves the rear open.
