rear caliper offset

I have a 89 iroc z 5.7 350, I want to upgrade my brakes and I was asked, what is the offset of my rear calipers. does anyone know this or where I can find the measurements, also does anyone know where I should look to get 2 piston calipers for the front brakes?

Re: rear caliper offset

Never heard of that b4 but I think the LT1 rear fbody pbr calipers (or C4?) have a different offset due to the rotor?

Re: rear caliper offset

I've heard of it but cannot remember the definition. Call Big Brake Upgrade and they will walk you through the details and can sell you the correct parts.
