Anyone know of an online parts catalog that still lets me search by dimension?

I need to find a brake rotor that's as close as I can get to CENTRIC 12179015 but with a shallower hat. I'm willing to go +/- a few mm on the OD and/or thickness if I have to but it would be nice to not have to re-drill the bolt holes or fuck with the ID but I'm willing to do those things if I have to.

how much shorter?
Ideally 1.25 inches. A little more would be fine too because I'm not too good to use a grinder.

Basically the area behind the rotor is a clutsterfuck with not much space for the piston end of the caliper before it's endangered by the frame at full bump. If I toss the caliper over the rotor with full brake pads 1.25 is the clearance between the furthest sticking out part of the brake pad bracket and the wheel. So there's plenty of room to move things that way if the rotor hat was shorter.

If I can't find a rotor I think I'm gonna make an adapter hat for a Transit 350 rear rotor which is about the same side but I don't like because it's not vented and this is a really stupid setup that generates a lot of heat.
