Caliper Upgrade 96 Z28

Hello,

After 13 years of faithful service, my calipers are getting pretty weak. They stop, but it's a noticeable effort nowadays. I'm basically looking to upgrade just the calipers, an entire caliper/rotor kit is too far out of budget right now (just bought a house, a wife and a dog). The aluminum quick-change calipers from SSBC seem to fit the bill perfectly, but I don't see an application for 96's yet.
Anyone out there know of a similar product I can use? I'd like to upgrade to dual piston in the front and keep single in the back (or dual dual, depending on price). I don't want to get a remanned unit from the auto parts store as I've never been happy on other vehicles with remanned units.

Help?

In the for sale section there is a guy selling an LS1 swap for $200+ shipping. Dual piston calipers painted red w/ camaro decals, spindles and rotors. The rotors are an inch larger that the LT1 rotors as well.

The calipers and spindles look to be in excellent condition. I would have jumped all over this if I hadn't already bought mine a couple weeks ago.

Hope this helps.
