Default mk3 mondeo brake conversion on orion bolt question

hey people ive done a search with no avail and hoping someone can help.
im currently collecting parts for a mk3 mondeo caliper and st170 disc set up on the front of my orion and looking for a bit of help.
ive already got the st170 discs,mk3 mondeo calipers and carriers inc standard bolts,12mm hole by 12mm thick spacers ordered on ebay and new pads.
im wondering if the standard bolts will surfice as im extending the caliper or is there special measurement bolts i need?

many thanks in advance

You need to drill the hole out from 10mm to 12mm in the hub or 8mm to 10mm, then use bolts that fit into the caliper carrier 2mm bigger than standard and 12mm longer!
