Edit: I was thinking Racer but heck, I'll take 'em anyway. Never had the Competitions. Just a few million miles on Racers and a smaller number on the cantis.
If those bushings in the bag are the ones I think they are, they are no good for Mafacs. They have a steel inner and a bearing-metal outer skin; the outer is a press fit in the brake arm and the inner rotates on the brake post - steel on steel, not what you want.
