Aftermarket is OK but I perfer to use OE. like GM, I was and continue to look at a using Toyota/Lexus rears but was that is all R&D on my side as everything would be a one off (mounting ect..)

Thanks in advance
A C6 Z51 kit with a 330mm rotor and 45mm single-piston caliper is going to be a very good match with respect to front/rear balance in your typical 55/45 front engine, rear wheel drive muscle application. You're within a few percent of the same brake torque as the 340mm 4-piston C6 Z06 setup and should be able to tune it into perfection with an adjustable proportioning valve.
