Re: Brake??

u have 12 in rotors up front with dual piston calipers
the easiest and cheapest upgrade
if not a new set of pads
is a c5 set up, which utilizes a similar caliper with a 13 inch rotor, a very common swap for ls1's
if u do a search for c5 brake upgrade you'll find more

and i'm just gonna point out
incase anyone wants to jump down your throat
u did say, u want the cross drilled and slotted for the look

Re: Brake??

its fairly easy from what i've read
theres a bracket that bolts with or behind the hub, i think u have to trim the stock spindle, the rest just bolts up
u need a 17 inch rim minimum for c5 brakes, 16 will not fit
