There is also the option of relocating the pump. I also didn't know if the bracket could be ground enough for adequate clearance. Too many unknowns for me to be making assumptions hence why I asked.

That's what I'm running. I'm not sure how different the 2.4 is from my 2.2 thermostat housing, but I had to bend one of the heater core pipes ever so slightly to clear. I'm not sure if anything has changed from then, but just a heads up.

That’s what I figured he meant. I got drilled and slotted with ceramic pads. Was going to just get slotted but it looks weird to me. And I know drilled has a higher chance of cracking under a lot of stress but I do normal driving with it so I’m sure it will be ok.

Just check how close that last drill hole is to the edge. If you have 1/4 inch or more, I think you're fine. It's the cheapo rotors with those features that crack due to poor placements of the vents.

EDIT: I assume 1/4" is like half a centimeter because you know, metric is the awesome (and better)
