rear PBR to Ls1 rear brakes?
hello
ive got 12" rear PBR brakes factory, and i want to switch to the ls1 rear calipers because they are smoother [mainly a looks swap] and will look better against c5 front brakes.. what am i looking at to change?
thanks

At any rate, the LS1 system is designed for a 10-bolt. The 9- and 10-bolt housing ends have different bolt patterns.

Re: rear PBR to Ls1 rear brakes?
hmm, i have factory 12" rears on a 9 bolt, but now i have a hybrid 8.8 rear with 9 bolt tubes. at any rate we can just pretend its a 9 bolt which means i need a different backing plate for them to swap. hmmm im gonna search 9bolt with ls1 brakes as see what comes up.

As far as I know, there isn't a 9-bolt plate for that set-up. Should you find anything, please post the results.
