I think Bob Bishop is the one who make them. You can get more info at www.nashvillespeed.com Try doing a search. Those brackets cost about $250 and the rest of the parts(calipers,rotor,hoses ect.) cost about $500 when I bought mine.

Yeah that's my old site, kept it up for Bob's benefit. All the info there is still valid, but e-mail Bob because he's working on a smaller and less expensive bracket that will not compromise strength and will mean less cutting on the spindles.

Yeah i had a great conversation about brakes with bob last week and he was telling me about his new adapters he is making for the C5 Brake upgrade. he said they are probably going to end up around the area of 150 bucks and then about 450 for the calipers, 13"X1.25" Rotors, Brake pads, and lines, all from a chevy dealer that he has been talking with. for the money you CANNOT go wrong if you want some SERIOUS braking power or if your looking for some extra rotor to stuff behind your 17" wheels instead of the TINY 10.8" stock rotor.

Let me set ANYONE who doubts Bob straight right now. THIS GUY KNOWS F-BODY BRAKES No ifs ands or buts about it.

Again Bob Thanks for the help and all you guys keep an eye out for Bob's new adapters that he is making. Undoubtedly worth every penny.
