I am in the process of a budget backyard resto-mod of my 1/72 build Bavaria. I will be doing a B35 with Motronic manifold and the tii booster swap. I want to upgrade to vented front rotors (and keep the solid rears) and I have the original calipers with 15 mm thick pads as well as what appear to be E12 or Early E24 vented calipers with 19 mm thick pads at my disposal. I am considering just widening my E3 calipers with the 10 mm spacers and longer hardware to use the 272 x 22 rotor. My question is would it be possible to use the modified E3 calipers with an early E24 282 a 22 mm rotor as a further upgrade by simply grinding a bit of the caliper for clearance or is more entailed? My goal is to maybe have a bit larger diameter rotor and save a little on caliper and pad weight since the E24 ones are quite heavy.
Thanks
