Timo had asked about the weight of the 4 piston caliper for the 200 series Volvos (offered for both solid and vented rotors)
Not as much of a difference as one would think (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Attached image(s)

You can avoid the extra line by drilling through the base of each piston bore at about 45 deg from each side so that on each side the fluid flows from the lower cylinder to the upper. I did it this way and it works.
