i rebuilt caliper is from 50-89 with your core exchange and a new one is 220...this is the great part about this type of setup ..

with no core 220 for a rebuilt?

x2 = 440 for bbk calipers. pretty good deal imo...if youre not looking to go too fast.

Ask Autozone who re-manufacture it. A1 Cardone makes good quality re-manufactured calipers. I have bought a pair of 95 Acura Legend calipers for my 00 Acura TL from Autozone and it works out to be the cheapest brake upgrade.
