I can hand deliver my half-used spare set to Laguna Seca tomorrow for $60.
When I was having a problem getting a set I placed an order at another site - they ended up being a little more expensive and were drop shipped from Carbotech, too, so they didn't show up any earlier than the ones ordered from 949. 949 might even have a set in stock right now.

Not really. I think you are asking about the 4-piston DynaPro calipers and Emilio is talking about the 6-piston DynaPro.
To be clear on the weights:
The DynaLite-4 and DynaPro-4 are about 4 pounds each. The weights of all of the 4-piston DynaLite and DynaPro calipers are within a few ounces of one another. The lightest of the 4-pistons is the DynaPro radial mount, which is 3.6 pounds, but would require a completely different (and heavier) mount.
The DynaPro-6 (six piston) is about 6 pounds.
Savington's kit is reasonably priced and will get the job done. Personally, I would spend a few extra dollars and go with the DynaPro 4-piston (which Savington said is an option), but there is nothing "wrong" with the DynaLite, it is a proven caliper. The DynaPro is basically DynaLite version 2.0.
If you want a caliper with dust boots though, you have to go with the radial mount DynaPro, but that is a totally different discussion.
