Hi all
Does anyone know which model of AP Lockheed Calipers will install onto a standard RD 350LC (I have the conversion brackets) just want to know if there is a specific Caliper Model.
Thanks

Considering a set of these for my 4L0, are they are a worthwhile upgrade and work with the std master cylinder?
Any feedback appreciated .

Are these any better performance wise over blue spots though?

Lovely, thanks Nigel...anyone running these or the APs who can comment on performance esp with the OE master cylinder. I know Blue Spots would be a definite upgrade but not interested in those, just feedback on the APs. |

Just fitted a pair of AP's but with 320 discs, cant try them yet as I have to rebuild the motor first.  OEB |

Hi , I have had these on my lc for years and rate them I use an rgv250 m/cylinder because I also use rgv switch gear . I ran a pair of tzr carbs for years and wanted a handle bar choke . I found depending what make of pad you used you could after a while end up with slow speed squeal from them .

Will new brake lines be required as well? TIA |

I fitted these back in the 80’s so not made from today’s modern materials. I used to use the standard 350 master cylinder but found I didn’t have much feel and they felt very wooden. I now use a 250 master cylinder and it’s much better. I still have the splitter so only needed the lower brake lines. Although it now has all braided lines. They’re also quite capable of locking the font wheel up.  |

The banjo is different thread wise.Nigel at NK Engineering made the adapter plates.Oh the brake lines were made to length of the std hoses. |
