FC Bearing Adapter Dimensions?

Have looked in every thread I can find, but not finding any additional info. Took 2 days just to find a good picture so I could visualize the adapters themselves. No I see how they work and are made, but no dimension sketches or drawings.

Is this a closely guarded secret? Would anyone be willing to share if they know the specs?

Are you talking about the spacer to run 2nd gen front brakes on a first gen? You can always measure the 2nd gen front hub and first gen spindle.

Yes. And I may have to go that route if I end up building the car I'm thinking about.

Every once in a while there is someone on the big auction site selling the RE-Speed type BBK. They are new and for $400 front and rear are a good buy. I used to have a machine shop make the fronts but I don't have the drawings.

You know, I'm pretty sure I have a CAD model I made of them I did. If not I could redo it - have one of those kits sitting on my shelves.
