What's the difference between wilwoods kit...?

What's the difference between wilwoods kit "part # 140-2992" and the kit sold at Hawks thirdgeneration "Pro Series 13" Big Brake Kit with Wilwood 4 Piston Calipers"....

There are a huge price difference? Is it the same caliper? It says Pro-series on hawks page.... I'm confused

The 140-2992 kit is a very light weight application for drag race only- Not for a full time street car. Why? Because the rotors are not large enough to handle normal to heavy heat repetitive braking. They are on .81" wide. Even the stock F-body Delco moraine rotors setup is 1" wide vented rotors ad they barely handle elevated heat without cooking the rotors.
