The BJ8 calipers have a wider bolt spacing that the Alpine and Tiger calipers. They are both 16P so all of the internals and pads are the same, just not interchangeable as a full assy!
The Alpine and Tiger 16P calipers are 3.25" centered for the mounting lugs, Austin Healey (Mk3) and TR4-6 are 3.5" centered, as is the Toyota caliper. BTW, the Toyota calipers are sold by Moss and others as an upgrade kit for the Healey and TR.
The early disc brake Healey used a 14P caliper which is 3.25" centered for the mounting lugs.
