Ford discs have different bolt holes so need machining and the disc is thicker so need to change calliper to P16s.
I use 2.8i Capri discs with p16 callipers (with spacer kits), but fitted to Ford hubs, that also need a spacer on the stub axle to suite Ford oil seal and to get the correct calliper/disc alignment....and I needed to change wheel studs (When I bought the car it had ford wheels nuts on the front and avenger on the back)
I still have the solid disks and they seem fine for gravel, fair bit of fade on track (only Dot 4 fluid doesn't help but I am on a real tight budget currently : to the point of getting 2nd job)
what else are people running? options?
also weird to note Ford studs are different thread?
Good Pads and Fluid is always a simple solution
On my race car I run standard Avenger discs with volvo 4 pots and a run semi-race compound pad.
That combo worked really well for me. I don't like full race pads because they don't warm up fast enough on hillclimbs (They usually only start working on the last corner) so I went for a bit softer compound which heats up faster than race brakes but doesn't cause fade like standard brakes.
looking at buying some new disc's / disks in the near future
#part numbers? though is suspect not hard to find or source figure best search & ask here first :P
