Re: found LS1 brake conversion cheaper

I received my brackets at least 3 weeks ago, they were packaged tight and look great. I thought I'd let you guys know that Jake does good work, and he ships fast.

Re: found LS1 brake conversion cheaper

I will do another run. I heard back from my waterjet guy and I can do them for $65 a set shipped in the US. I plan to put the order in at the end of this week so if you want a set you need to pay by Friday morning or let me know via PM when you plan to pay. paypal to jake@classicdaily.net . Be sure to put what you are buying in the notes, also in the subject if possible.

The brackets are cut on a waterjet out of 3/8" mild steel.

PM me if you have any questions. thanks, Jake

Re: found LS1 brake conversion cheaper

For the fronts you need the bracket (what I am selling) in addtion to the ls1 calipers and rotors. You also need to take your original rotor/hub combo and remove the actual rotor part and turn it down to fit inside the LS1 rotor. I can have this done on a lathe by you either sending me your old rotors or I can buy new ones near me. New might be cheaper rather than shipping. Converting them from rotors to hubs runs $60.

I am not sure about a conversion for the rear..... I would have to have it all in front of me to be able to figure it out for you.

Re: found LS1 brake conversion cheaper

Remember if you want a set of brackets I need payment by tomorrow morning. Or at least a PM telling me you want a set and when you will pay. I will not be cutting any additional brackets.
