A well tuned BBK will have piston sizes ideal for use with the factory hydraulic system on the car.

Unfortunately many of the "kits" are universal calipers with brackets and rotors made to fit the car not considering piston tuning.

This does not apply to all kit but to some.

This is a reason I am hesitant to do a swap because I don't know the piston sizes to BMC comparing other cars.... They may "work" but not ideally.
