LT1 to LS1

around how much would it cost to upgrade my brakes from stock LT1 to LS1's rotors and dual piston calipers?

Got my calipers, rotors and spindles on ebay around 220ish. I bought the Hawk pads and i think they were ~$70. Rotors had to be turned though and that was another $40. Definatelly worth the money.

really.... is it that much better stopping power from stock? did you get them all around or just front?

Some people say its as noticeable as swapping 4.10's on a 2.73. I just got the fronts done. I think problems with the LT1-LS1 rear brakes happen when changing out the rear end to a 9" or 12 bolt:shrug: , thats why i didnt do them. Someone correct me if Im wrong.

I bought the entire assemblies with new pads and rotors from a board member for only 150.00 bucks. It is definitely a good bang for the buck brake upgrade.

You can get the calipers, rotors and brake pads from napa, autozone, advanced, pep boys, or any other place. Calipers would be around $40 each + core which you might be able to slip the LT1 calipers for core ;) The rotors are cheap and the pads are cheap... probably around $100 total. The only thing you need are spindles and hub assemblys. You'de probably find em in a junk yard for cheap... Probably around $50-$100. Brake lines can be ordered online I believe you need em 3" longer then stock LT1 or maybe bend the brake line bracket a little... not sure since I haven't gotten the parts yet.

figure between $150 and $250 depending.
