These 16" and LS1 brake upgrade...
I just picked up some rims from a swap meet, I guess they are 4th gen factory rims. These will clear the LS1 calipers?
Also, if I just do the front brakes, will I be okay with the stock master cylinder/boost...or do I also need to upgrade?

Yes they will work, with an LS1 setup I would run a 1.75" spacer on the front and keep your stock master.

Yes, the 4th gen wheels have added offset the 3rd gens don't have, you'll still need that spacer to get it right.
