      Help, conversion bracket woes!

      Critical reading has never been my strong suit. I have purchased front and rear LS1 camaro brake components, only to find that the brackets available for the front seem to be for 1st gen only. No issue with the rear, but does anyone know of a conversion bracket being made for a 2nd gen Camaro? I can sell the parts, but would really like to make this work.

      Is the hole spacing the same between the LS1 and C5 abutments? If so, couldn't I just drill out the LS1 bracket for the larger 14mm bolts and use a C5 bracket and buy the larger 13" rotors? Or would this cause strength issues?

      I think they're different brackets. The LS1 and C4 are different. I shouldn't read so fast - missed the 2nd gen statement. Sorry.
