Default Lucas HP2 - piston diametres

Does anyone know, or have an idea where I can find (yes I've been searching to no avail) the size of the pistons in the Lucas HP2 2 Piston calipers.

I'm certain that the PITA setup of 4 pads per caliper is the cause of my horrendously noisy brakes as pretty much every other solution has been tried, so I'm looking at upgrading calipers to something like the Evo 4-9 Brembo 4 Piston on the 314mm x 30mm rotor. The Brembo will give a greater selection of pads, and if the ******* is going to make noise, then I may as well have really good pads worth the noise.
