Caliper Clearance

Of all the calipers that can be used with the C5 12.75" rotors, which one offers the most wheel clearance?

Seems I remember mention of the C6 caliper offering more clearance; can't find the thread.

Engine: 5.7 TPI; 5.0 TBI; ZZ4/T56 on the ag

In what area? Concerning the rotor to wheel clearance, it's the LS1 caliper actually, it's thinner in the area that goes over the rotor.

Where is your area of concern?

You answered my question; where the caliper goes over the rotor.
