Corvette/Camaro Brakes on 9" Ford - Lateral-g Forums

Hey guys, I have a 9" big bearing, not Torino rear end. I'm wondering if anyone makes/sells adapter plates to install C4,C5 or ls1 rear brakes. I know Willwood has kits but I would prefer GM/PBR brakes.

Found it Kore3 Industries.

Their site doesn't show much of what they've got. I know they have adapters for the calipers but what about the park brakes? I have a full ls1 rear set and am going to be using a 9". I saw one guy on pro-touring.com redrilled the ls1 backing plates to fit his 9".

if you are building a new rear/ shorten moser has a big bearing ford housing end with gm pattern they use it to build late model f body rears the stock ls1 brakes will bolt right on

The guys at Kore emailed me a couple of times,very helpfull and informative. Tobin says that they don't actually have a kit or brackets for my application if I wanted ebrakes. I have a Vesailles big bearing with a 2.36 offset( 2.5 required for in hat e brakes ) and custom Moser Chevy B.P. axels. he said to give Baer a call, that they built their business on these C4 conversions. I woudl like C5 or LS1 brakes for the front which isn't a problem. The problem is with the offset on my 9" I'll have to use a rear caliper with built in e brake like a C4 (84-96) or LT1 93-97 caliper. I don"t want to buy the Baer set up because it is overpriced GM/PBR stuff anyway. I don't know if Baer would just sell me the brackets , I don't see them listing them in their catalouge. Does anyone know who sells brackets for this application? By the way if you are on the Kore site click on Rear Disc Conversions and then GM and the 9" C5aplications are there ( I couldn't navigate there either and ended up contacting them ) or try http://www.kore3.com/products.php?cat=12

What size rotor are you going to use? I have an extra set of brackets as I had to have some fabricated with the caliper clocked at the 10 o'clock position to clear my mini-tub leafsprings. What I have is for a 12" rotor they are the brackets that were sent with my Baer Track kit. Let me know if I can help.
