Rotor interchange

1971 F250 front Drum brakes.
I'm changing my drum brakes for disks, I have everything I need,
except rotors. Every one I find the inside is grooved.
I'm going to use Single piston clipers from 79 F250.
But am having problems finding good rotors.
What other rotors will fit (work)?
What years and what models, vans maybe?
Pick-N-Pull is half off this weekend.
I used search, but did not see anything on this problem.
Thanx

Where do you find new rotors for $24?
These are all one chunk, hub/rotor, they do not seperate, unless I'm missing something.
Is there another upgrade I'm unaware of?
Thanx

Any ideas for a change over from drums to disc for a 71 F350? Will disc brakes from a 75/79 F350 fit?

My mistake Russ71. Ignore that post above. You have F-250 not F-100, so those are $84 at Autozone. Happy hunting at the pic-n-pull!

I looked at Autozone, and that may be the better way to go.
By the time ya screw around trying to find stuff that fits or not, might as well get new.
Thanx for the heads up on Autozone.
edit: Part #: 5415, $74 ea.
