Default Where can I get Z06 front calipers?

[B]Where can I get a pair of Z06 front calipers? I have a 2001 SS M6. Are they a direct bolt on? Also does anybody make drilled and slotted rotors(12 inch 0r 13 inch) that work with the Z06 calipers? Thanx!

Corvette (including Z06) calipers are a direct replacement for the f-body calipers. You simply keep the f-body pad basket frames and swap the caliper itself. Bolts right on, and you keep the f-body pads and rotors.

The Corvette calipers are stiffer than f-body calipers, because they are pressure cast instead of gravity cast. I also like having hand-me-down parts from big bro.

My orange SS and previous 35th SS:
