Default Compbrake diske thickness..?

Hi. I have been running a brake kit for some years now on my 2wd Sapp. Cosworth. Its a kit I got from Combrake, PRO-RACE 7 [4 POT] and 335 X 32MM rotors and so on. It works perfekt on road and on track, but I have been trying to figure out what the minimum thickness are on the disks...and yes Ive tried to write to Compbrake but for some reason I have not got an answer...so does anyone know what min.thiknes would be on these rotors..?

That would be a question for the brake disc manufacturer, Powervane rotors.
What you down to? They are pretty hefty (thick walls). Shouldn't be an issue at 30mm or even lower.

I would send the disc to reyland and get him to spec an ap disc to replace it, it will last longer and probably brake better, he may have other options and probably knows the answer to your question.
