The Superlite caliper series is the benchmark in short track, late model, modified and open wheel competition. It also enjoys prominence in a variety of road-race, off-road, rally and sport driving applications. The new FSLI model series is the latest innovation to this Superlite family of calipers. It has been redesigned with internal fluid ports that eliminate the external fluid cross-over tubes, along with any potential problems that could arise from a damaged tube. The transfer tube has been replaced with two additional bleed screw assemblies which allows this group of symmetrical piston bore models to be mounted either right or left in a leading or trailing position.
Wilwood’s Tandem Aluminum Master Cylinder is available in 2 bore sizes 1.00″ and 1-1/8″; and 3 finishes, plain, ball burnished and black e-coat. 7/8″ bore master cylinders are designed primarily for manual applications and include a pushrod. The 1″ bore can be used in manual and power assisted applications and does not come with a pushrod. The 1-1/8″ bore is designed for use primarily with power brake applications, either from vacuum assist or hydraulic assist systems. They’re designed for mount flanges from 3.22″ to 3.40″, common measurements for most domestic cars and trucks from the mid 1960s to present, and offer fluid outlet ports on both sides of the bore. The stroke is set at 1.10″ with a volume ratio of 2:1 between the primary and secondary chambers. Machined from high-pressure die castings, each master cylinder weighs only 3lbs, a 75% weight savings over most cast iron OE type master cylinders. We also offer a our combination proportioning valve kit, which includes brackets and stainless lines specifically for use with these master cylinders, see PN 260-13190, or 220-13189 for retrofit kit.

FSLI4 and FSLI4/ST calipers provide the pad wear performance advantages of differential bore pistons with the option for ultimate heat protection using Thermlock pistons in the ST models. Differential piston bores compensate for leading-edge mechanical loading and temperature variances across the pad face to reduce pad taper wear in sustained high temperature applications. Thermlock pistons in the ST models block heat transfer from the pads and reduce temperatures in the caliper, fluid, and seals by up to 25% over standard stainless steel pistons. These are the go-to calipers for all types sustained hard braking on dirt and asphalt ovals and a wide range of off-road, rally and road course applications.
Wilwood’s new Forged Narrow Mount Dynalite (FNDL) calipers are ideal for and widely used in many competition applications including late models,modifieds, sprints, off road and road racing. Computer generated design and stress analysis technology, is the latest innovation from Wilwood providing substantial improvements in strength and performance over all comparable caliper models.Forged Narrow Mount Dynalites are the strongest calipers in the class. FNDL calipers are a direct replacement for all previous Wilwood NDL’s and similar competitive brands with 3.50″ centered mounting tabs. A total of five bolts provide superior bridge strength and positive retention of the top loaded 7816 or 7216 type brake pads. The full range of PolyMatrix pad compounds is available to match the brake response and heat range requirements of any competition application.
Wilwood’s 2005-2010 Mustang Disc/Drum Parking Brake Cable Kit contains all parts necessary for effective parking brake installation on these vehicles. Kit contents include cable and sheath assemblies, equalizer assembly, clevises and hardware
Wilwood’s GT 48 Curved Vane Spec-37 rotors are manufactured from a proprietary iron alloy developed to withstand extreme temperatures with the highest possible degree of resistance against distortion, warping, cracking, and wear. The formulation for this alloy is a derivative of technology and materials that were significant in the development of the extreme duty military spec rotors that are manufactured by Wilwood. Every Spec 37 rotor is precision machined to less than .001″ run-out, flatness, and parallelism. Combined with our proven GT Series asymmetrical face slot pattern and individual dynamic balancing, you are assured the smoothest, vibration free performance at any speed. These rotors provide the highest cooling capacity and longest service life for extreme braking short tracks and road course competition.
The unsurpassed braking capacity of the Forged Narrow Superlite 6R six-piston caliper serves as the base of this group of 13″-14″ big rotor kits for these popular late model vehicles. FNSL6R kits are engineered application specific for simplified installation and full compatibility with OE master cylinder output and ABS functions where used. Big brake kits provide increased brake capacity and complimentary style with wheel, tire, and suspension upgrades on show cars and high performance street/track machines. Optional caliper finishes and rotor designs simplify personalizing the style and braking requirements of any application.
The Forged Narrow Superlite 6R (FNSL6R) is our newest version for the venerable Superlite caliper series adds the versatility and convenience of radial mounting to this widely popular caliper group. Radial mounting simplifies adaptation and provides two planes of adjustment for accurate alignment over the disc. These calipers integrate “Big Brake” style with Wilwood’s latest technology to generate big stopping power in extreme environments over a broad range of vehicle applications.
This group of FDL Pro-Series rear disc kits provides a complete solution for popular muscle car rear axles that require a parking brake. Forged billet Dynalite four piston calipers, 12.19″ one-piece drum/rotors, and high friction pads provide optimized and balanced braking for all types of custom performance street/strip and show machines. The neatly hidden internal shoe system provides a clean installation with superior static holding power for parking. Optional caliper finishes and rotor designs enable the builder to personalize the style and optimize brake performance for every individual application.
Ultra-Light UL-32 directional vane rotors provide an excellent balance of efficient cooling and lower rotating mass on hard braking dirt tracks or rear axle service on pavement cars. UL rotors are cast from premium grade, long grain carbon iron for long wear, high thermal stability, and resistance to distortion. UL-32 rotors are production machined and well suited to a wide range of sportsman racing categories.
GT Series Big Brake Short Offset hats are precision machined from premium aluminum alloys for high strength and attention to minimized weight. Hats in this category feature threaded rotor mount holes for use with standard through-hole mount rotors. Threaded hole hats may also be used with T-Nuts or bobbins designed for use with specially machined slotted hole dynamic mount rotors. When used in conjunction with matched Wilwood rotor hardware kits, GT hats provide solid, reliable performance in the most demanding conditions. Short Offset Hats are for narrow space applications with offsets often less than 1.00″. They are available for most rotor bolt patterns in a variety of four and five lug wheel patterns.
