The stock brake caliper has a 65 mm front piston. You can go to autozone and for about $12.50 buy the 73mm piston caliper, tell them you have an '86 SVO. I did this on the '85 for a while. I did have to upgrade to an '86 SVO master cylinder also from autozone for about $30.00 rebuilt. On the stock calipers you should also cut out the rubber guide sleeves and replace them with SS one. If you want to do this, let me know, I have several sets, and would sell you one set cheap. As for appearance, after you do a rear disk swap, just paint the stuff black (with high temp paint) and it will look decent.
