The '79-'85 calipers will not work. They are much different from the D52 calipers. If you need an e-brake caliper you can use the '76-'78 Eldorado, Toronado and Riviera calipers as shown in the pic above. Those are interchangeable with the D52 calipers.
A rear disc bracket set that uses the Metric style D154 caliper will be coming. I just do not know just when as there are several other projects ahead of that.

Seems like a decent price.
I would really prefer to use the Wilwood D52's as I will be using them up front, but I need a parking brake.
