Default Brake Conversion Question

What exactly is the diffrence between the Mach 1 & Bulitt Brake Conversion Kit, The 10th Anniversary Cobra Brake Conversion, & 13" Cobra Brake Conversion Kit.

From the looks of it the diffrence between the Mach 1 & 10th anniv is you get the the Banjo Bolts in the latter. Which you apparently don't need?

Is the 13" Cobra kit just more generic? I.E. No brembo, no PBR, no Ford Racing?

Thanks,
Nik

The Calipers and pads are made by PBR which is an australian company. The rotors are Brembo but stamped as ford racing. They are all 13" rotor, twin piston brake setups. In the end, they are all identical in terms of what they do and parts. The difference is basically the visual difference on calipers.
Im not 100% sure on the mach 1, but the 10th ann cobra calipers you just remove the washer on the banjo bolts and ive heard they are a hair bigger than the bullitt calipers, normal cobra calipers, and the mach 1 calipers.

10 anniversary calipers have a larger piston than the mach 1 calipers. Mach 1 calipers are slighty larger than the cobra (normal) calipers.

The banjo bolts for the Mach 1 and Normal Cobra calipers are the same. its on the 10th anniversary where they switched to coarse thread.

So the 10th Anniversary are the best of the bunch. You guys include the neccesary banjo bolts though correct? So it's a complete conversion right?

Yes, the entire front kit has everything you need.
