What are PBR brakes?

I thought I had them, but now I'm not sure. I just read a post that said there's an allen head bolt on them, but I don't have one on mine. I have a 92 Camaro, but I already knew it wasnt stock, because there was no 92 9-bolt 2.77. My calipers have 2 regular mounting bolts, and then another bolt that holds the caliper in - when you take it out the caliper swings down, but a part of it still hangs on by the mounting bolts. What years did these come on? Thanks.

This is what my PBR brakes look like,


I had another set of LS1 PBR brakes and they look like this,


I believe both sets have PBR stamped on them.

That first pic looks like mine, except they're not painted. I've read a little more, and it only seems to make sense that these are the ones I have, I'm just confused about the allen-head bolt comment I read. Maybe I missed it.

Thanks.

no problem.
I've been working on so many different brakes systems that I can't even remember if there are regular bolts or allen head bolts on any of my brakes, I just can't remember.
