I'm looking for some ideas on what kind of front brake caliper to use on a late 60s British track bike that came factory drilled.

The geometry is quite tight and it seems that most calipers of the era have too long of a reach.

A 70s Campagnolo Record short reach caliper was still too long of a reach, and an off-topic 90s Shimano 105 caliper fit fine but was obviously not period correct.

Thanks in advance!
