I'd like to come by and watch and give a helping hand for free. I plann on puting the c5 front breaks on my car aswell. Where did you get the kit UMI? or it something you put together yourself?

Its a Bob bishop brackets. And I have everything else. I work for the USPS and most of the time I work 7 days a week so it gets tough to get any work done.

Just a heads up...you do realize that the C5 brackets won't fit with Firehawk wheels. Not sure if you still have those, or if you're even putting them on the same car in your sig... but I thought I'd tell you.

Are you serious? I was under the impression that they fit all 17" F-bod rims.

Yep, I'm serious. The caliper will rub on the inside part of the wheel.

There is a link on this (http://www.speedspecialty.com/store/view_product.php?product=c5fbodybrakes) page that has a template for you. And at the bottom of this (http://www.gmrspeed.com/product_info.php?cPath=22_23_66&products_id=30) page it says the Firehawk wheels won't fit.

If you read closely on that second page you posted it says that ALL '96 and newer 17" wheels will work. The only firehawk wheels it claims aren't clearanced are the '93-'94. In his sig it says LS1 wheels

I thought all Z-28/Formula/TA/Firehawk rims were 16's. I only thought SS rims were 17's, if the firehawk rims are 17's then I learned something new today :D .
