      Anyone make a kit with e-brake to run C6Z rears on a G-body with a 8.5" 10 bolt?

      Just like the topic says, I want to run the C6 Z06 4-piston rear calipers and 13.4" rotors on my 87 Buick GN and ditch the stock drums. Does anyone make a bracket kit with somethjing for the e-brake, or has anyone out there attempted to do this swap on the G-body yet??

      Thanks!

      I have the C5 setup up front on 98-02 S10 Blazer "spindles". Somewhere I thought I read that the C6 ZO6 calipers will bolt onto the C5 knuckles without modification & use the larger rotors. If that is the case I may do that & make my own setup for the rear & replace the BAER brackets that use the 12" disc setup.

      I don't know if you guys have read any of the info in these threads below, but it may be a good Idea before getting all gung ho' on the c6 z06 brakes. the z06 brakes are probably pretty good but others have diff. opinions.

      chicane has some good info in the thread from lat-g

      72 Nova SS, on the back burner for now.

      '70 Impala 4drht, 26K original miles, 2" drop springs and large swaybars, drives pretty good for a land yahct in the middle of an ls1 swap, but thinking about changing directions to a duramax diesel swap.
