I have a conversion setup from big brake upgrade for my moser 12 bolt with ford ends thats going in my 69 camaro

It uses brembo style calipers from late model corvettes and camaros

I got a set of used rear brembos off of a 2016 camaro SS and although the bolt holes line up
The mounting plate is too thin

I emailed scott but they are in the middle of a move so i figured i would ask here too

It looks like your using stock hardware. Since your bracket isn’t stock you need a shorter bolt and one that’s fully threaded. You have plenty of thread engagement there into the caliper.

True but at part under the head of the bolt is thicker and used as a locating dowel so i really cant use a fully threaded bolt

Did you put on the rotor? Maybe it needs space to be shimmed out? But I still think you need a shorter bolt.

I havnt yet but that could be the reason
If not do they sell shorter bolts with the locator?
