What r good front cross drilled rotors for a camaro?

The car is a 91 z28. Looking to get crossed drilled or slotted. Where is a good place to get them? Is roto-tech a good brand?

Stillen. they make good quality rotors and very good compound brakepads for performance noise free daily street use _ I can not preach enough how good there brake pad compound is- You just gotta trust me on that one, I have used them for years and if I could get a set made that would ork on my Camaro custom brake I would be running the Stillen MetalMatrix compound rright now.Just so you know what brakes I have- I bult them myself with Wilwwood 6 pistion calipers and 13" rotors.Do not use Powerstop rotors, I have tried them in the past and the metal quality is junk. I still to this day use Stillen x-drilled rotors and pads on my daily worktruck that carries very heavy loads of marble and stone. They are not cracked and have been on there for about 10 years.

I was reading some of your posts about those pads i wish i had read them sooner. I just installed 1LEs up front with a stock type semi metallic pad. they work great when cold so far. The poor cold braking has always turned me away from the so called performance pads.

I bought a complete set of fronts and rears from PowerSlot. The fronts were C5s an the rears were LS1s. They were 150 total from ebay brand new.
