Default Question: 1989 SSC Brake Rotors?

Does anyone know if the factory brake rotors on the 1989 SSC are slotted/grooved? Also, are the brake calipers identical to the LX 5.0/GT?

Cool

I think they were smooth and the front calipers are 84-86 SVO Mustang and the rears are Lincoln MK VII.

Yep.

The rotors on SSCs are unique though. Same dimensions, however they have curved grooves in them. I'm not sure if there's currently a source for them.

The SSC rotors are grooved.

If memory serves me correctly, Power Slot manufactured the grooved rotors used on the SSC.

They are grooved, and I think there was a thread about some almost identical replacements, and I think they were available from Stainless Steel Brakes Corp(SSBC).
