There was a website out there called bigbrakes.com or something along those lines that sold an upgrade kit to ls1/lt1 (can't remember which) for a pretty good price including spindles, etc. Does anyone know what I'm talking about and have a link?

edit: just found this picture. I'm pretty sure it's from the website:

Very interested. The only problem is that I'm running a 9 bolt. Any info on this?

The problem is that the 9 bolt doesn't have c-clips and instead uses a retaining plate to hold the axles in. Here's a picture of the flange:
