      Why dont I call them?
      They are complete baffoons.
      They didnt ship the rotors and then sent them ground 2 and a half weeks later..

      Upon install they neglected to install the helicoils into the brake caliper feed holes.. They also didn fit right I had to send the caliper mounting braketts out to take .080 off them so the outter pads werent SLAMMED against the rotors nor the rotors rubbing the inside of the calipers..

      all total 50 + days to get system and car still on my rack tying it up...

      would I buy anything from them ever again???? I THINK NOT

      From the specs listed for that front caliper, they have the same size caliper pistons and rotor diameter as a 98-02 LS1 F-body. Based on that I would say you should be in the neighborhood of 7/8 to 15/16 for a manual setup, 1" for a vacuum boost setup, and 1-1/8" to 1-1/4" for a hydroboost setup depending on which unit you use (and potentially smaller if you go with a Mustang unit). It could help to know what you're running for rear brakes.

      Sorry to hear about your "after sale" customer service experience with SSBC...but if it's any consolation, I don't think that you are alone. You must be running small wheels or something, otherwise you would have been money and performance ahead just to throw some C6 2-piston calipers and 12.8" rotors on there and call it a day.
      It's what I does.
