Can anyone ID these brakes?

These were given to me for my IROC. The person that gave them to me said they were "Corvette" brakes. I think they look more like 4th Gen brakes. Either LT1 or LS brakes. I want to find out what they are and see if they will work on a 3rd Gen. Thanks.

I think they are LS1 but they could be C5 brakes. You need adapter hubs, spindles, and brackets to use them, a member here Astout82 from Missouri is selling those adapter parts

Re: Can anyone ID these brakes?

those are the 98-02 F body brakes- otherwise known as the "LS" brakes that everyone wants. they are easily adapted to your car with some trimming and drilling/tapping to your existing spindles, chopping your stock rotors down into hubs, and making mounting brackets out of 1/4" thick steel..

Thanks. I am planning on upgrading my front brakes this fall. I was looking at the Big Brake Upgrade partial kit, now that I know what they are! Thanks again!
