    I have a question.. I have seen the Saleen six piston calipers on the S-7, and now they are putting them on the S-331 truck.. So my question is; is it possible to buy the Saleen 6 piston calipers and mount them to a mustang/ my saleen??? And if I can does anyone know where I can buy them??? Thanks..

    Why not keep the Baer 6-pot brakes you already have on the front?

    I like the Saleen look.. The Baers work and look awesome but I love the Saleen insignia. There's nothing wrong with them I just like the look of the Saleen calipers..

    Why not just paint the Baers yellow and write "Saleen" on them?

    Anything is possible, even K-Fed painted his F360 calipers yellow and put his last name on them.

    I guess I could do that.. But aren't the saleen calipers engraved with Saleen?? I reason that I want to do this is because I like the originality of the caliper.

    You'd probably have a clearance problem fitting 15" rotors and the larger caliper. My guess anyway.

    Did you get your car back from the shop? Got any photos of it yet? Love to see some more of it.

    No, it turns out that my dad wanted to do more to my car than i though. While it was only supposed to get paint he added, a k-member, ZR cams, and a custom tune, aparently the car is done but we are waiting on our GT-40 mk1, the 15in. rotors will fit, and the calipers. Also we got angel eyes put on it.. my dad is flying there next week it's all the way in Arizona. I'll ask if he can get some pictures.. But he's selling the 40 and the 427 and he's getting a Blue Ford GT. OH yea I forgot I got the new number on the Saleen. Hopefully I can get a dyno sheet to prove it. But the new numbers are 553rwhp from 4000rpm to 7200 and 524rwtq from 3800 to 7200rpm. It's all linear and damn the car is wickedly fast (according the the guy who is doing it) but the last time i drove it, it was crazy fast so now it must be even crazier. This is all on I believe like 9-10lbs of boost. And according to the guy the car sounds like a 60's muscle car.. :hail2: It's hard to go and get the cars because we have to drive there with our trailer (14-15hrs) pick up the cars and drive back. And we have to tow both of the cars in one trailer so that's a heavy load, and we haven't installed the banks kit on our F-350 yet. But i'll see if he can get some pics for you guys..
