      C5 rear calipers on LS1 abutments?

      Sorry guys - I think I looked thru all of the archives. Will a C5 caliper work with the LS1 system/rotors/abutments on the rears without issue?

      I will be doing the same thing... Kore3 said it will work and is a great source for new calipers... here is part of the email they sent to me....

      You can't really just swap the entire caliper assemblies on the LS1 F-body rear brakes for the C5/C6 versions, but you can swap just the caliper bodies if you're interested. It does require some tweaking of the anti-rattle springs... It must be due to the different pad backing plates, but to be quite honest, I'm not sure why they rub.
