on top of that, the c6z calipers are wide, so you need to make sure you have enough caliper to frame clearance.
i have the same brake package for my 70 velle and i am in the process of doing numerous modifications all started by the brakes. narrowed rear with 9" ends, all new brackets with parallel ucas, coilovers and a watts link...........
