My biggest question is what did the ATE calipers even come on? I've considered swapping to ATE calipers, if I can find them, for the sole purpose of adding the brass guide pin bushings. Pads are still the same though, correct?

The ATE vs. Girling front calipers use different designs of the sliding pins. Girlings are waaaayy more common, but the ATE ones are of higher quality- they don't have those damn stupid pins that get full of crud and seize up. ATE calipers are more common on very early cars.
