Need help to identify these vette calipers

Hey guys I'm trying to identify some corvette calipers so I can upgrade the front brakes on my'86 Z28. Best I can narrow it down to is '84-'87. These came off a junkyard Vette I found by chance. I didnt think much about it when I found what was left of the poor C4, I just saw vette calipers and grabbed them before anyone else could, plus they kinda match the 1LE/LT1 rear disc setup I already swapped onto the car.

Re: Need help to identify these vette calipers

Ok well I'm sure they are still better than the stockers and I'm pretty sure they'll fit under my stock 15's. I like the way these look better than the HD and non HD C4 setups. So is there a bracket I can get from some where to adapt these to my car ?

Anyone ? Someone must have swapped these on a 3rd gen at least once by now.. I'm betting its only a bracket I need with a hub and minor spindle mods like the C4 HD and non HD
