BR-R8010 work with Shimano 600 calipers?

I have an old steel bike with Shimano 600 brakes. Presently I have the BR-M50T pads on them. A friend was going to let me use his carbon wheels (for fun), but I needed to change out to brake pads for carbon wheels.

The BR-M50T is a full assembly, so I picked up a pair of R55C4 (BR-R8010) brake shoes so I could easily swap pads.

Looking around on the web though, this seems to be for a slightly different type of brake caliper? Holding them side by side it seems like these should work in the Shimano 600 calipers, but wanted to get a second opinion before I mess some things up.
