The bolt holes and offset won't line up because they are for a Chev and not a Ford. The caliper cradle (some call it a bracket) is different for each car eg HSV , FORD and Chev along with the Toyota they fitted them too.
Wjhat we may be able to do is use them for the 355mm kits we used to do back in the day if they fit the 32mm disc.

Thanks Matt


Update, It's Powerstop that are making them





Power Stop calipers and the brackets are remanufactured in our Chicago, IL facility


Power Stop calipers are 100% pressure tested to verify piston operation and prevent any possible leaks from occurring. This insures that every caliper is inspected for quality and safety. Every caliper kit is expertly assembled using new pistons, seals, slide pins (where applicable), dust boots, bleeder screws, and stainless steel brake pad abutment clips. High temperature EPDM rubber dust boots and premium silicone lubricant.
