Looking at you Konigs again = damn I love them.

So thats what you were waiting for! NowI understand 
Those look really mean with either size wheel.
Hope you didn't have too much trouble topping the fuel in that old seven

Eh, I could be wrong, it's been a while since I've read up on it.
Either way - I am jealous!

Those do look sexy... What I don't get is doesn't the brake bias get thoroughly screwed up with huge brakes in front and the original teeny rear brakes?
Front brake bias is the devil, IMHO. I like my car to rotate under almost all conditions.

More pix and info
Its a real nice piece of work
As you can see, it uses a easily replaceable standard outer rotor, on a fully machined aluminum hub. which allows you to go to a larger rotor if you wanted, just need a new caliper and spacer.
Old rotor was 17lbs, this one is 14lbs
you could install a brake bias adjuster for maximum benefit, as Paul has done.

The thing I am wondering now....
It seems the surface the pad will ride on is the same width. Does it really make a stopping distance if the surface is the same, just, longer because of the greater diameter?

heres the caliper that they use for the kit
http://outlawdiscbrakes.com/3000_4000.html
they also make a rear kit
I also found a company that makes the aluminum hubs with the 4 x 4.5 used in the kit
Will I make my own...................
