What does that conversion normally cost??

 

You can usually find everything you need in the for sale section for ~$200. Then youll probably want new pads and rotors, so throw in another $150 at the least on top of that.

 

I agree with steveo, maybe if you shop around alot you can find a set for 100$. I almost bought that deal only catch was i had to send my lt1s back and i didnt have time to do the swap at the time. It came with new rotors and pads as well. I guess he was trading in his car and was gonna swap to lt1s before he traded it in to score a little extra cash.

 

Whatta bout the rear brakes? I've scored some rotors and calipers but now need the calipers attaching hardwware and the parking brakes cables and mounts if any

 

When 70% of your braking force is in the front, why worry about the back. Just do what I did and put some nice pads on the back.

 

Yeah, i think its even more than 70% at the front. I've seen a few cars such as the saleen focus (I know its a lot different than fbods) that dont even have rear brakes.

 

I bought my LS1 setup off a seller on ebay for $165 shipped. The rotors were in great shape as well as the pads so i just reused them. I cleaned up the calipers and painted them installed the CAMARO caliper decals. Bought brake fluid, new ball joint rubber covers and by the time i was done installing the setup i had probably right at $200 in the whole setup. The brakes are awesome i love them.
