I was really talking about diameter, like how tall the rotor is? Maybe like 10.5, 11, 12 inches or something like that?
Just trying to figure if it is worth swapping some...

Thanks.

12" disc w/either 1" or 1.25" thick rotor. I'm not sure about the caliper capacity though.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
