" Well, 5/16" larger diameter will still add a little braking power, but
" not likely enough to be worth making a new caliper bracket.

agreed.  unless it's the only rotor you can get...

" Now I wonder if the rotor will fit the existing caliper bracket. 
" There may be enough clearance there.

hmmm...  could be.

" If not, the rotor could still be turned down to fit, so it may
" become a part source when the Concord rotors start getting hard to
" find/pricey (gettting the rotor turned down won't be cheap though).

if you could just find someone with a lathe big enough, actually
turning it oughta be pretty fast and easy.  maybe you could modify a
brake lathe to do it.

napa book says the concord/spirit rotor fits '79-'83 so that widens
their supply a bit.

" One of these rotors needs to be priced! I wonder if it
" fits a Dakota or some other DCX product? 

no, as far as i can tell.
