Brett,
 I have an idea... if you want me to pirsue it, I'll need to know ASAP. Take
a larger pad, mill it down to size in our tool room. I expect I can start
out with some Stoptech Club Race (which I stock) and machine them down. It
would be $50./hour for the toolroom time. I'd *guess* an hour per pad (4
hours) but it would be whatever it costs to do. Basically, the risk would be
yours, since I've never done that. I can take an old set today and test to
see if it's possible. As I recall, the profile of the V8/200TQ 20V is both
small and relatively plain.
 This won't be cheap, but we'd be willing to try it as a last resort.
 I'd need to know soon so I could run home and get an old pad to test with.
Then you'd have to overnight the backing plate to me to match up. Do you
have any new stock sized pads? That would be even better (check thickness,
and mouting clearances).
 Mark
