Brake Upgrades

[Michael Oritt]

I have BN7/BT7 rotors on my 100 and want to replace them and the present pads. Is there anything interesting out there beyond the stock replacements--slotted, cross-drilled, etc along with compatible pads?

I went from stock BJ8 set-up to EBC pads and just that alone made a big improvement. Less noise,dust and better deceleration

Michael - while I have yet to have real life experience with these... I think the Fosseway Performance kit is the best out there...IMHO. They are a lightweight 4 piston caliper with vented rotors. It's the only vented rotor Healey upgrades I have found/seen. This is what I have sitting on the shelf for my current build. They are beautiful. Hopefully, they work as well as they look. I'm also converting to a Wilwood dual master cylinder... that's a bit of a task... but since you build race cars, I'm sure you're up for it.

I don't see any slots in that rotor. Do you mean vented?

Correct Richard, Fosseway high performance brakes rotors are vented. > Big Healey Vented Brake Kit - Fosseway Performance <
Wish I could run them on my vintage racer....

Duh!...of course Richard you are correct!.... thanks Dougie for setting it straight... vented ..... I've edited the post to correct it.
I should note that you can option from Fosseway vented and slotted, which as you can see from the picture I didn't elect to do.
