That's a lot of write up for still not understanding even caliper clamping force on the rotor. I really don't care if a caliper clamps with 3000, 5000 or 10,000 pounds of force. If it ain't putting it down evenly, it's not efficient. And if it clamps the pads unevenly and can't do it repeatedly with consistency, it's inefficient. A smaller brake pad making parallel clamping contact with the rotor will always be more efficient than a large pad being clamped unevenly. I think you need to review the Statics, Dynamics and Materials classes you should have taken to earn your claimed Rocket Science degree.
Once again, you really don't understand why a multi piston caliper would have sequential piston sizes either.
And sorry a Aerospace Engineering degree from UCLA is about as good as a used piece of toilet paper. Probably why you're a firefighter instead.
But,everyone else posting on here would probably be happy just swapping to an old single piston Mopar caliper and it will meet the needs of their application. Even drum brakes stop great just driving around with, if they are driving like a little old lady, which is what 72bluNblu says he does, they will be fine. They just don't work the greatest when hot.
And yes, we have tested Willwood brakes here! They work great!
