The name of the company is Aerospace Components, you can easily find them searching the net. They make drag race parts, mostly billet aluminum stuff. I'm sure they'd help you out if you called them. I had them on a 69 Camaro drag car and they are great brakes, definatly worth fixing IMO. I don't know what could be rubbing, maybe the calipers are sticking like you said. Are the rotors centered in the caliper? They need to be as close to perfect as you can get or one side will rub worse than the other. When you buy them they come with shims [like .020,.010, etc..] and you have to put them inbetween the caliper bracket and caliper so the rotor is centered.
