What do you mean by "big brake".. 13"... 14"?? six-piston fronts? Another good option for the money would be C6 Z06 brakes although I don't love the front pad arrangement. |

I bought ATS spindles (added benefit of the tall spindle for handling-reduced neg camber gain)that allows C5 front brakes to be a bolt on 12.7" , and in the rear im using ls1 f-body rear brakes 12". this is not a bolt on kit because all the late model lines use metric bubble flare line whick have to be adapted IMO this whole swap including spindles($675) should be doable - with being resourceful and thrifty for under $1500 - kinda depents on how much you would rather figure out or if you want a complete kit and bolt it on,although bolt on leaves you with the stock suspension geometry but this is just my .02c :cheers:

Like ZMAN1969 said, the ATS spindles will take care of several issuses with suspension and brakes. I believe they are worth the money just to be able to walk into any part store and buy c5 brake parts. As far as hoses Kore3 sells braided brake hoses to work with original hard lines. They also sell an adapter for GM 10/12 bolt rear end that will adapt c5 brakes. However they don't have an e-brake. That is something else to fab. So it all depends on your intended purpose of the car. Do you need 6 piston calipers and 2 piece rotors to run on the street? You options are endless......

Also purchased CCP 4 wheel big brake for my 69 Chevelle. Control arms 2" drop spindles, springs, billet master cyl, booster lines all of it. Mario at CCP was a big help. Just tearing down will be ready to install soon. Also purchased a Unisteer rack and was impressed with the kit. Lots of work ahead.

Kore3 is the way to go. You can get the complete drilled and slotted c5 brakes front and back for about 1500.
Sounds good to me. |
can you see themastercylinder with the booster ?

+1 for the c6 z06 setup. the major complaints originally were about the weight and the horrible pads. there are now a ton of pads to solve that issue, and the weight is no different than the cpp kit that i sold. i only paid $400 more than the cpp kit, and i now have 6 pot 14" fronts and 4 pot 13.5" rears.
i dont think youre going to get much better than this setup unless you spend twice the money. they dont put crap on a $70k supercar. most guys that swap these out have more money than god and their replacements sometimes cost upwards of $15k...... |
