Can't comment on the Wilwoods but would suggest contacting Wilwood directly to see if they can refurb/service your callipers.

The ST170 conversion works a treat. Only brakes I've had where I haven't buggered them in no time. Although I have warped a set of the 300mm discs (had a few setups as well)
