  I'm just wondering:  when are you going to buy a service manual?

I have it, but want to confirm that the Shelby /Boss 2 piece rotor has the same standards as the standard Mustang.  I would rather be too careful than take a chance.  Especially when it comes to brakes and stopping.

Another consideration is the replacement rotors don't always have the same minimum specifications a service manual. All rotors/drums are marked by manufacturer for minimums.
