LS1 questions

i am sure this info has been covered, but i searched and could not find it. i even read the first 3 chapters of the FAQ...

so far i have two calipers, pads, two bracket things (pictured) and two hubs from a 98+ TA.

my question is this: can i use these hubs or do i need to get my current discs machined down into hubs like most people do? also, what are the gear teeth on the back of the 98+ hubs for? if i am able to run these hubs would i be using different wheel bearings? and lastly, are there any more brackets that i will need?

thanks guys, i know it sucks answering the same questions over and over, but i realy did search i swear.

anyway, here is a photo of what i have so far. i recieved this stuff as trade for hauling a friends camaro to the junkyard

Let me clear some things up for you..what you have is 2 LS1 calipers, a pair of C5 adapter brackets, and turned down hubs from an ABS equipped S10 or something, they aren't '98+ hubs. You can use them in place of the hubs you will need but you'll need different mounting brackets.
