I really want to upgrade to LT1 brakes, but its not in the budget. I was wondering if this Stainless Steel Brake Corp setup was any good.For $189 from summit you get 2 slotted rotors and pads.

I have rebuilt the suspension w/ Poly bushings, new ball joints, all new steering parts, and have stainless flex hoses.
In essence, I am trying to be cheap. The car will only be used for regular driving/spirited handling when possible. It will not be a daily driver. I will not be going warp speed on the highways. Will this suffice?

 

Why do you want LT1 brakes? They are no better that what you already have up front. Upgrade to HPS pads and slotted rotors and you'll be fine for a budget setup.

ill send you my old set up of rotors and calipers off my 97 ta. i'll never use them since i upgraded to ls1's, but i agree there no better then what you have

 

They won't bolt on anyway, caliper is different and the rotors are slide on.

I meant LS1 brakes. Oh well, my typo! I guess LT1 is a engine.

 

just to help you understand the lt and ls are both engien's in f-bodys the lt was from 93-97 and was replaced with the ls in 98-02 and people refer to the brakes as the cars engien to keep clear which are beeing talked about becouse when the ls came out in 98 the brakes were upgraded to lager rotors front and back

 

Gee, you can tell I haven't looked at GM in 15 years, other than my IROC which has at for 1 year. Can you tell that I drive Ford's now?

 

Yes because you're slapping yourself on the head wondering "Why? Why?"

Go with the pads and rotors.
