Z06 Brakes- Too late?

Re-doing my 94 Z28, and have spent HOURS on this forum looking for ideas and tips. I'm moving up to 18" rims, and want to upgrade the front/rear brakes. Looks as if everyone pretty much recommends the Z06 package, but from what I gather "Bob" has retired and no longer makes the bracket. So whats a guy to do now?

Also, is there a list of parts/suppliers to buy the Z06 package thru?

Back brakes are direct bolt on, correct? Calipers and rotor?

This link provides all of the C5 brake part #’s, and the contact info for Team Chevrolet. No other source I have found will match Team’s shipped price for the C5 front brake parts. http://www.speedspecialty.com/prodim...bpartslist.doc

I have not yet decided whether or not to make another run of C5 adaptor brackets. See my post on 5/19/04 on this thread: http://web.camaross.com/forums/showt...&pagenumber=17

Bob-
I understand completely.

If I can't get your brackets, I guess I will roll in with the Baer kit.

LG motorsports is still making their brackets to mount the C5 calipers and rotors. I have them and they work great. They do require that the you have LS1 spindles, but they do not require any cutting and you can go back to stock LS1 brakes. I like that feature as I sometimes run 15in draglites on the front and they will not fit over the 13in C5 rotors.
