C5 Brake Swap Questions

I am planning on swapping my brakes over to the C5 set-up in the front, and the LS1 brakes out back and had a few questions for the people that have already done this swap. I am probably going to purchase the kit from flynbye.com (http://flynbye.com/catalog/i154.html). My questions are, do you need an adjustable proportioning valve for these brakes? Also, for the LS1 rear kit, http://flynbye.com/catalog/i60.html, will these clear the factory 16" Iroc wheels. I believe they will but would like to know for sure. I belive both of these kit include everything I need for the swaps, so I imagine that they are just bolt on and go, correct? Or is there more parts that I will need?

Well I've read where some 16's they will clear fine and some may have slight clearance issues. I just wanted to make sure. Has anybody here purchased one of these kits before?
