This is what I posted about a year and a half ago on the subject.

"I got an early 80's non ABS caliper for the solid rotor with 3 bleeder valves sold to me as a 92 ABS caliper. One of the brake line Ports was capped off so there was only one available.

This is a first for me!"

Rebuilding non ABS calipers for use on ABS cars may be a somewhat common practice.

The rebuilt caliper I got a year and a half ago was clearly older from a car with solid rotors. There was no way it was going to be installed on a vented rotor. I suspect the rebuilder did not know there was a difference between solid and vented rotors / calipers and mistakenly rebuilt the older caliper.

ABS caliper cores must be rare.
