If any of the above cars use 17" rims, it's possible they use this same caliper but with a shorter mounting leg. This caliper might then fit on our f-bodies that run a 17" rim. I doubt it would bolt directly to the spindle, but even if we have to run a $100 bracket, it would still be a very cost effective swap. I'll do some research when I have some free time.

Dang, I forgot that this caliper for another car might cost double or triple what it costs compared to the Caddy application. Let's just hope for the best.
