Tyoneal, I think you are headed in the right direction with your selection. The real quest for education...
is going to be in brake pad selection.
The only other advice I could steer would be, that you pay peticular attention to and make sure that you center the caliper over the rotor during initial installation. Being that these are radially mounted calipers with non floating rotors... 0.010" off center makes a huge difference in pad life/wear, not to mention performance.
Essex makes a caliper abutement (radial and/or lug)
shim kit for $9.38... just for doing this.

They often don't use 14" rotors, either.

The 2005/2006 C6R uses an APRacing CP6080 mono-bloc caliper and a 14.96" carbon rotor. The race car carbon/carbon stuff is a whole'notha story...
