Hello all
does anyone have templates for the conversion brackets to mount newer gm calipers to the chevelle front spindle and rear 12 bolt axle.
I have found information of people posting about these templates but havent been able to find actual drawings with measurements.
thanks in advance.

Here's a link for the fronts. https://www.camaros.net/threads/ls1-brake-swap.155265/#post-1197523 For the rears it's usually faster and cheaper to use the whole rear brake assemblies from the 98-02 F-body. I've done several swaps using them with no issues. They're plentiful at the local pull-a-part around here. Here's a write up for a Camaro but it's the same thing for any GM 10/12 bolt. https://www.camaros.net/threads/ls1-rear-disc-install-lots-of-pictures.161383/
