EDIT: NEW LOWER PRICE... $115 for the set!

Got the C5 front conversion brackets back up for sale for anyone interested! It has been a while and I have had lots of requests over the past few years but they are back!

Will these brackets work with F-body calipers from the same time period? I did the F-body upgrade on my old Grand Prix and recall you could interchange the calipers and brackets from either the C5 or F-body cars.

If so, I’ll definitely order a set.

edit: sent you a message on your website as well.

Let me know if you got my reply from the site. It should be possible as some of those cars with the LS1 from later years had the same calipers that were found on the C5. I believe you will need the C5 abutment brackets for the C5 rotors so that the rotor offset and abutment bracket match.

Those of us thinking about this swap probably need more Q &A details.
You need the adapter brackets. OK this is a given.
If you use the Corvette C5 calipers that means that you must use the C5 rotors that have a different bolt pattern on the hubs.
What machining steps are necessary?
Assume that you need 17" rims, the Corvette Master cylinder, brake booster and most likely longer brake lines.
If there is a video on how this is done please point us to it. Thanks
