Possible to convert late t-3 rotors to early ones?
Is it possible to swap the late model (72-73) t-3/4 rotors and calipers for the earlier ones? Maybe swap the spindles. Is this an option? I want to run porsche wheels and can't find the late rotors in the 5 lug pattern. Thanks in advance for any insight.

swap?
Sorry to say you wont find t3 rotors with the Porsche pattern..
No T3 came with that...You need to have your Drums , Rotors, and drive plates drilled to this pattern.
Call around to your local machine shops , ask them what the cost is ...and there you are!
Done deal....

I'm going to go another route with my car.
I'm getting the brake system from a 944. I plan on mounting the calipers hubs and rotors onto my fasty!
I will have to make bushings for the porsche wheel bearings and modify my spindle to accept the calipers. Once finished finding a rotors will be easy(and expensive!)
what you need to do is measure the inside diameters of the rotors and wheel bearings and compare these with whats available.
