I had the hubs turned down today to fit the rotors (drum brake hubs left over from a '67 Camaro disc swap), and Curt got the brakes bolted up with the new KORE3 brackets, GM abutments, and a new C6 J52 (Z51) brake rotor and remanufactured C5 Corvette caliper, both from our local O'Reilly Auto Parts. This is just a mockup, so note the pads aren't installed.





They also got about half the valve springs, retainers, locks and seals changed out, and will get the rest knocked out in the morning, and install the new lifters and re-seal the heads. While they're off, the guys at BullDawg will get the heads cleaned up and looking good, and get the block cleaned up and primed. After color selections are finalized, the block will get painted to match and start reassembly.
