The existing discs are 273mm diameter and are 4 hole which have been drilled out to 5 hole.
I want to replace the discs but I can only find Scorpio discs with 5 holes which are 253mm diameter and are therefore too small for my calipers and pads.
I think the donor was an 81 Granada but they had drums on the rear end and I'm begining to think that the hubs are original and they have been converted to take discs by drilling 4 hole discs out to 5 hole.
Any help would be appreciated.

As far as I recall the Sierra cosworth discs are 273mm dia but only came in 4 hole form.The Granada (and cosworth variant) were mainly in 253mm dia (although there are a couple of obscure ones).

Are you sure it's a Cosworth diff as my drive flanges are 125mm dia (Rs 500 type).To change drums to discs would require all the right caliper mountings etc to suit the disc size as well so they must of been modified from something else????

Do you have any other pics/markings etc to help ???
