So...Is there any problem with running an FG 6/4 Brembo setup on a BA long term. 
It is impossible to find BA brackets/kits and FG kits are selling fairly cheap.

Any reason, other than slightly higher brake caliper position that would be negative?

No issues.  The swapping of components as discussed is so the leading piston in the caliper is the smallest.

 

This is vital for even wear.

MFP I think are the only company making the correct brackets for the BA..

CNC machined and hard anodised very good piece I just use them to put my FG 6/4's on my BA........ $$ pricy $$

 

the hardest thing about this install is getting the hard line made up to join both sides of the calliper up 

I had some made by a hydrolics shop but they stuffed it up they had to remake them and use the nuts off the original hard line to make it work 

the nuts they used were supposably DIN but it still had a 45* bevel in the nut (like a SAE nut would) where it pushed against the bubble flair and not quit long enough 

 

all good now but
