944 Brake conversion - Kerscher disks no longer available!

Guys, I currently have a set of 944 S2 (same as Turbo) front calipers and slotted discs (diameter=298mm width=27mm). I want to fit them onto a beam beetle.

I read the tech article on here that suggests using a Kerscher disk and CB dropped spindle. I have emailed Kerscher (in german and in english) and not had a reply, and I can't find the appropriate disk on the website. Is there anywhere else I can get these disks from?

Option 2:- get a new caliper mounting bracket. I still have to get a hub (I can get a hub off an 87 944 turbo) and do the machining work. The calipers have a bolt spacing of 94mm. Do I just make up an adapter as shown in the tech article, and the bearing spacers?

Any help much appreciated
