WCM 10.5" rear brakes

[Blindcars]

Does anybody have a picture of the rear caliper mount that is used with the Wilwood Dynalite caliper and the stock Subaru rotor (10.5)? Also, examing the fit of the Wilwood caliper and pads to the 10.5 stock rotor why is it that it seems like the pads are only going to be contacted on about half of the pad (in other words the rotor will only be being grabbed by 1/2 of the height of the pads? Is that the way its supposed to be? Doesnt seem right.. It seems to me that a smaller caliper is needed ( the curve of the caliper will be smaller in radius thus alowing more of the pad to contact the rotor... Am i correct or am i missing something here? But if a smaller caliper were used ( no, im mot talking about piston dia, rather the size of the caliper body), a person would need different pads too though ( smaller surface area... Can anybody enlighten me??

I have been assembling a WCM Ultralite manual since i purchased my S2K about 2 years ago. The project began as a convenience for myself and my mechanics, but has grown to include many repair experiences from many owners. We are up to about 100 pages now and NEW is table of contents, supercharger section, oil accumulator section, anti-surge fuel tank section and more. MANY pix including many rear hub assemblies. If you would like a copy, please respond with email address. i will send a PDF file, which you can convert to Word if you prefer. Take care!

I will try and get a pick for you, but it is intentional. I was always bothered by it but was told that it is done that way to reduce braking force. The rear brakes have a bad tendency to lock and this is one way to reduce the chance of it happening.
