I'm jumping in with a me-too. I could do with 280mm non vented, and either rotors for bells, or disks.
Thanks

At a casual glance judging by the webbing thickness they may be a standard disc but with the centre bore opened up.
Not much help though
Phoned the local ramblers club today, but the bloke who answered just
went on and on.

Mintext brake book is quite good:
http://www.brakebook.com/bb/mintex/en_DE/expertSearch.xhtml?reset=1
but there is nothing shown for solids in 108pcd and 260 diam.
Closest i could in solids were
7mm thick, 244mm that are no longer available or 224mm
or 247s in 8mm thick
If you go to 9mm you get more options.

Aren't they machined down e30 bmw front discs, thinned to 7mm with newly drilled hub mount holes and machined out areas where the original bmw
mount holes were?
Dave
Edit: There's some dimensions here for the bmw discs to check, you would need to get someone to machine the appropriate areas to match.

Dave, your suggestions could be correct, even if there still is a dimension that doesn't match. The four slots are definitely done to remove
holes in wrong position looking the sketch I done with the dimensions of my discs:

Are the 260 x 10mm thick solids that Hi Spec supply too thick for the caliper?
Try Rally Design - they may be able to help as they sell a Cortina base Willwood kit using 265mm solid discs

I think so, but they updated their site and this size is not anymore on sell, so I wonder if somebody will share the alternative found to replace
them.

I should be able to help...
There doesn't seem to be a 260x7mm off the shelf disc for starters.
The largest 7mm thick disc is a 244mm
From your sketch I'm seeing the total height of the disc is 34mm, correct?
There is a 273x10.3mm disc with total height of 33mm which could be turned down, so long as it's not too thick for the caliper.
There's also a 258x9mm with 33mm height
There's a 280x12 with 34mm height
276x10 with 35mm height
The other option is go 2 piece with aluminium bell?
