corvette "c5" camaro 98+ "ls1" help
okay so i bought the rotors for the camaro "ls1" and i was reading that the corvette "c5" has a larger rotor, i thought they were the same size
can somone comment on this and let me know which bracket i need to get fabbed up because i did a search and found 3 different designs.
or if somone could email me the specs for the bracket as song as its not a cad file that would be most appreaciated devinrand@hotmail.com <--my email addy...
seeing how i already got the "ls1" rotors im gunna buy everything for the camaro calipers etc.
i just dont want to get anything confused so that i can do my swap right the first time without hassel.
thanx.

No they are not. The calipers will indeed swap from one to another, IE LS1 caliper in a C5 carrier and vice versa but they aren't the same. I posted pics of both of them side by side in the big LS1 thread in FAQ.

No I don't, other than the C4 bracket. Take the C4 bracket and move the carrier holes in about half an inch. I eyeball my brackets until I get them right.
