Ls1 calipers with C6 rotors?

I'm getting ready to start in on my brake upgrade. I had originally planned on a ls1 swap. Reasearching on lukeskaffs sight it looks like I can use the ls1 calipers, with C6 abutments, and the 13" c6 rotor. So long as I use the c5/c6 bracket. Has anyone done this.

I've got the parts for my ls1 swap. and I have a set of c5/c6 brackets sitting around. I just don't want to buy a set of rotors and abutments to test fit it.

Thanks in advance.

I've searched the sight with about as many creative search combinations as I can come up with.

Anybody know any other good reference sites I can look at? Something like lukesskaffs site.

I believe that will work. I am going to run the ls caliper with the c6 adapter and the Z51 option which will be the 14" rotor and Z51 abutments.
