So this is basically similar to the TCE rear kit, which uses the stock rear caliper, but for cheap? 280mm vs the 11in(?) TCE kit...looks good. I already have a Baer 13in front kit so anything out back to make up for that bias would be great, especially without having to spend 500 for the TCE kit.

According to Demons post, YES.
My understanding is that the Front 280mm rotors will be moved to the back, but the stock rear calipers will be retained. If you don't keep the stock rears, you lose the parking brake.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

It doesn't matter. As long as the bracketry are for a 280mm rotor then it will work with this hardware; early or late model SVT brakes, cougars, etc.
BTW, this stuff is not a replacement for the TCE stuff. The TCE stuff is very high quality. This setup uses OEM hardware.

The brakes look great and I want a set. Demon or Warmonger, since this is too complicated for a basic how-to do you guys think you might create a kit and sell it on CEG. Maybe you could hook up with stazi and do a package deal where you guys fab up the brackets and stuff and stazi gets us rotors and pads. I am in need of new front brakes and this is something I am def. interested in buying asap. I have got paypal ready to go, and need some brakes! Let me know if this would be possible ASAP. If you guys cant do this I will just get a stazi kit and upgrade to tce stuff when I get larger wheels.

I had planned on the FSVT front kit already, and have aquired the rear disk setup for conversion, so this will enhance plans for the car.
Make that two bracket kits. I'll upgrade the daughter's car while I'm at it. She's diggin on some performance driving these days, and her friends are starting to get into it too.

i have been estimating the price to upgrade all for corners of my car for a month or two now. if this is an option i would love to be involved since i imagine it would be less expensive than the route i had planned on.
