4 Piston calipers on ls1 brackets
Are there any larger brake upgrades I can go to if I already have the LS1 upgrade? I mean take off the 2 piston calipers and rotors and go to something bigger but without ditching the brackets I already got?

Re: 4 Piston calipers on ls1 brackets
You can use 6th gen 4 piston brembos, the calpier mounting bolts need to be opend up to 14mm. and part of the caliper will need trimmed/notched to match the bracket. the bottom bolt for the calliper will also need to be flush with the bracket. Scott at bigbrakeupgrade is a good person to talk to about it, super helpful and has really good prices as well.

Yeah I had orignally gotten my kit with the brackets and hubs from bigbrakeupgrade. Do you know what size rotors work with those 4 piston calipers? Gotta squeeze them under 17 inch ROH snyper's

I have the c7 z51 rotors which are somewhere around 13.5-13.6. i beilive the 6th rotors are the same size, but something about the hub is the correct diameter. but I also run 18s, So im not sure what setup would work with 17s.
