I was searching on the use of ls1 brakes on my lt1 car. And i looks like you have to bend the bracket to make the lines fit, does any one have any pictures of this?

 

I used C5 brake hoses.

 

I used LS1 brackets and bent my brake lines to fit. That allowed me to use LS1 hoses

 

Does anyone know if the rear brake lines/hoses will work if swapping rear LT1 -> LS1 brakes?

 

Please post on the correct forum.... LT1 Based Engine Tech isn't for questions about brake lines.

Zachz28:
No pictures but I bent the brake line body bracket down ~50° and the L shaped hard line part of the LS1 front line gets twisted ~90° and bent down ~15° or just enough to point at the body bracket. I would have tried the Vette lines up front but I couldn't find anyone selling a separate 3 line LT1 rear set so I used the 5 line LS1 line set. The LS1 fronts are longer in total than the LT1 but the flex part is actually a little shorter and the extra length is from the L shaped hard line at the caliper end of the line that the LS1 lines have. It sounds difficult but actually was easy.

The LS1 rear lines seemed to be essentially identical to the LT1 rears in both ends and length.
