Anyone here interested in 13" C5 front brakes?

I am considering switching to C4HD fronts, just so I can have a few more front wheel options for AutoX and the like (The C5's are just a bit too big for what I would like to run). I would have a set of red powdercoated Z06 calipers, pads, abutments, adapter brackets and hardware for sale. I have crossdrilled and slotted rotors too; they are a bit rusty since the car hasn't been driven for a while, but I'm sure they can be cleaned up fine, or of course new rotors could be used. I would be looking for less than market value of course, I just want to take as much of a chunk out of the C4 brakes as I can.. so I am gaging interest at this point. 17"+ wheels required.

Wow, that was fast.

I should hear from Ed Miller tomorrow on what he's going to charge me for the new setup, so I will be in touch.

I have Ed's LS1 kit. It's all that would fit under my GTA's.

I love them.

I thought I read that the C4HD kit would fit under GTA wheels as well. I guess I'll need to look into that more.

I need a spacer to run them which kinda sucks but when I change the wheels out I will have more options (I think). Here's what I was looking at:

Complete LS1 kit: spindles, zinc coated hubs and brackets, loaded calipers, new rotors, GM ceramic pads, Earl's braided line set included standard, Timken bearings and seals, GM banjo bolts, new studs, assembled and including all hardware: $775 + shipping; $810 with Hawk HPS pads; with red PC calipers: $850 plus shipping, $875 + shipping with red PC and Hawk HPS pads.

I went with the no frills, no paint. Wish I would have done red calipers.
