Hey All, been tinkering with my car recently and was curious if there's interest in one of these for people running 5th gen camaro brembos on their car? Would allow you to use a 5th generation brake booster/master cylinder with your 5th gen SS brembo brakes on all 4 corners. Just throwing it out there, probably a small crowd if anything. (bracket is not complete in pic, just for reference, will be done very soon and installed, that is a 5th gen booster in pic).

I'm running 18x8 and 18x12's on mine with the 5th gen brakes for an idea of wheel size. must be 18's and high pad mount or bigger.

i didnt think there would be many takers but hey I tried lol.

Some information for anyone in the future. I found this interesting...

So a 5th gen brake pedal assembly and pivot tube is almost the exact same size the original 67-69 pedal. Length/width bends etc. The pivot tube that the clutch pin slides into is almost the exact same as well (it has like 1/32" of play). With minimal modification to the pivot tube length, it could be easily swapped into the 1st gen pedal bracket (slightly wider/beefier if you're wondering why you'd want to) and the foot pad could either be ground to shape of original or cut off and weld on the old style. Just thought it was cool since there's almost 60 years difference in these parts and the 5th gen pedal seemed as though it was never meant to be removed from its bracket assembly (press pinch / welded fitment)
