Nothing much new, no time to work on it lately.... I got the caliper brackets all finished up, just need to machine a couple holes for the calipers. I could have welded it myself but took it to a certified welder buddy of mine and got him to do it. Filler rod was expensive stuff but better than than a failure!

Very interested in this design, you sure lucked out on those calipers. they look identical to the hellcat stuff.

Lots of them on E-bay, just search for AMG brake calipers.   These are 8 piston though and take 4 pads in each caliper. Not sure what the Hellcat has? I suspect 6 piston 2 pads? Not that it matters much....

Brembo makes a lot of high end calipers used on numerous factory performance vehicles, no the least of which are AMG, Viper, Subaru, and Mistubishi, etc.  Define what you want for piston counts and rotor sizing, then go looking.
