Eugene - nice pic. Do you have any of a full side profile?? I knew about the bleed valves being in the wrong position with Big Reds but not about the pistons. Does this piston configuration make any difference?
I think the 928 GTS Big Blacks might be the more technically appropriate option - I may have to forsake the kudos of the red callipers.

When you flip the Reds and put the bleeder screws on top, the pistons will be positioned correctly.
Nothing else extra to be done.
Here is a picture from Lime Rock in November

<hr></blockquote>I've got plenty of pictures of the big black GTS calipers on my website. Check the... drumroll... BRAKES section
I went with the big blacks because I wanted them to match the rear calipers and I didn't want to paint them. The blacks look smaller... but you can't miss the rotors.
Cheers.
