As dev says, it does seem rather heathen and risky though.

and before anybody comes bk with 'but AP Racing told Dave to do it....'
Dave was doing it to an opposed piston caliper where the mojority of the stress is in the bridge bolts.

I'm not sure what area you're intending on grinding but if its anywhere near either the top of the bridge or even worse the corner between bridge and pad backing I'd definately think twice, the stress in those areas is huge.
BTW I work for Caparo AP Braking and do know what I'm talking about, caliper testing is my day job.
