Braking Problem!

I have a 1988 Camaro I-Roc that came stock (front 10.5 disk) with a four wheel disc brakes. I would like to stay with Camaro parts. But I would also like to increase my braking power. so what I need to know is; What do I need to do to update my braking system to a LS1 system off a newer car. Or is it possible to do that at all? What years are interchangeable? Is there a web site that I can go to that will tell me what parts are interchangeable? I realize I could go with an after market breaking system. Which I may have to do.
Any help that you can share with me would be gratefully appreciated.
Gary

Boosted is correct. Big brake swaps are common on this board. You should be able to find all the info you require.

I've found out what I needed to know, what type brakes will interchange, and what other Camaros they are off of. Thanks to this site. Now All I have to do is find the parts. if anyone else needs this information that would be glad to share it . let me know and I will add on here. It seems they're not many left in wrecking yards. If anyone has a car with large brakes on it they are stripping out , please let me know.
