I have my originals sitting here and there are quite a few numbers and letters cast into them that aren't on the new ones. They are more accurate than the one piece rotors but certainly not going to fool too many if you are looking for the "original" look.

IMO if the car is worth restoring and the good original parts are still available one has to go with the originals. If the car is a trailer queen, they don't even need to be to spec if the car is hardly ever driven. My rotors are not quite spec and I drive my Z/28 weekly and never had any problems. Buy good used if available. No kit cars!

------Jeff Dotterer is apparently selling the ones that are pictured. Dan, Its good to know where they are made, but are you making a statement about quality or safety??? Lacking good rotors, are these an acceptable option for a driver, as they look OK to the naked eye??? ......Bill S

Here is my 2 cents.....no matter where they are MADE , they are still reproductions and the very SMALL crowd (and I mean small) that wants original and/or NOS wouldn't buy them ,if they were MADE IN THE USA. These are for the mass market, if you will , that make up the other 99.99 percent of the hobby we are in. It would be GREAT if we could get back to "made in america" on everything , but I think we all know that is wishful thinking.
