Question Need input on CTS-V/ZO6 Brakes for an early Chevy Monza.

I'm building a Chevy Monza (for Autocross) with updated parts (LS, Coil Over Front, 6 speed, 9 inch, Watts Link, 18 inch wheels, etc.) I have been reading on this site where the CTS-V/ZO6 brakes are a very cost effective alternative to the other high priced brake systems available. I would like to put this brake system on my Monza so could anybody tell me what other parts I would need in order to do so?

I believe I have seen kits for the older GM cars that allow you to convert your current spindle and inner/outer bearing setup to a late model GM setup like the F-body uses, with a sealed hub assembly bearing.

By doing that, it allows you to use the calipers and rotors from the newer cars, since all new rotors are just slide ons. And as long as you can convert to an F-body spindle, you can just bolt up the CTS-V caliper and Z06 rotor to do the swap.
