The parts from Summit arrived, brake discs are heavy $300 shipping costs.
Assembled the front brakediscs to adapters, the rear adapters are at the machine shop, 5 mm has to be removed from the inside face. The friction part of the discs is narrower than the Porsche brake pads, so I trimmed those down a bit, what you call a dirty job cost me probably 2-3 years of healthy life expectancy despite duskmask.
The prothane bullit Mustang motor mounts (search "prothane") have a slightly larger bolt spacing. Instead of enlarging the holes I welded the holes in the steel "feet" closed and added some extra metal, then drilled them to the correct size. Then one pair of the new mounts need 6 mm spacers, used Alfasud belt tensioner spacers, the other pair needed to be trimmed down 11 mm, did that with a Protrak XP2000 I mean a grinder and band sander. I also enlarged the mounting holes and tapped them to M12 to use the original bolts for frame mounting.
