The factory did it with small rotors. I'd bet they are 11".

I have 12" front discs in a C4 setup using 15" rally's. I needed a 1/4" spacer for caliper clearance.

The factory C3 Corvettes ran 11.75" x 1.25" rotors with 4-piston calipers front and rear and squeezed them into 15's. You'd need something custom for the Ford 9" rear, but we might be able to help you out with something there. Wilwood makes some nice aluminum replacement C3 calipers that shed almost 30 pounds from a set of calipers and modernize the piston seal design.

How do you primarily intend to use your car? What's the budget if you don't mind me asking?

The car is basically going to be a cruiser and some 1/8 mile drag racing,it has a stock LT1 in it now but I'm going to be putting a ls2 that I have or biulding some type of bigger cubed LS motor.This afternoon I found some small bearing backing plates that I can use in the rear with a currie 11in brake kit I already had.I may just run the drums until I get my motor situation figured out.THANKS FOR THE REPLY!
