The fronts are responsible for, perhaps, 70 percent of braking power. The rears are less significant.

i am sure if there is a difference, and how much, dont know. i havent heard of anyone upgrading to lt1 front brakes before, maybe some could speak up about that. but most people usually go for ls1 or c5

Alot of the LT1 camaro people don't like the LT1 brakes. They prefer the upgrade to LS1s. Aren't LT1 brakes basically the same as the PBR thirdgens??
