If I recall correctly the link you posted of the pads you were getting looked nothing like that.

I want to watch the video of you changing rotors without putting your bike up on a jack!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, that should be something to see huh! What I am thinking is to take the rotor and bike to a local shop and have them put the rotor on. I can then do the rest, even if it means using the pads that come with the caliper, which (now) would make sense.
To be honest, I didn't give getting the front wheel off the ground a second thought until I went out to see what I was going to need, tool wise. Too keen to get the parts. Actually, I am heading up to Utica to Hillside in the next day or so to see Scott about the build, might ask him if he could do it while I waited. All he can do is say no, right.
And before anyone gets on my case about not doing it myself (the rotor) I have to be practical about it, and lets face it, that's probably the easiest part to change out
