Default finally back at it

Finally back working on the car. damage from the hurricane is fixed and i had to spend a full day pulling all my parts back out, partial boxes of parts and bolts out and figuring out where i was 3 months ago. SO MUCH FUN...... but over the weekend got the engine, Mcloed RTX clutch and new T56 magnum F trans all mated together and in the car. got the front brakes on and am working on the rears. next up is wiring and plumbing. i should be updating more often now....

Are the Z/28 brembo calipers the same bolt pattern as the C6 ZR1 calipers? I think I'd much rather have those than the C6 ZR1 calipers if they do.

these are zr1 corvette calipers. they are all the same in terms of rotor and pad size. the difference between them all is the stand off distance for the caliper bracket bolts. so the c7z calipers are basically the same as the z/28 and the c6 zr1.

mine are a c6 zr1 setup repainted bc no one will go to the c7 and 5th gen camaro/6th gen camaro setup yet.

Thats what threw me off because I know the ATS spindles are C5/C6 brake setup. Where did you find the correct Brembo and Z/28 logos to put back on the calipers? Mine have some chips so I was going to have to repaint them anyways.
