I cant find this anywhere, so just have to ask a simple question.

Since the rotors for the Vette brakes are bigger than my stock FBody ones itll pull the caliper farther away which means I need to get longer brake lines from a corvette right? I have steelbraided lines on my stock brakes now, and just wanted to make sure I need to get vette brake lines to do this upgrade. Thanks

Hello
Any 98-02 Brake line will work as well as the Corvette lines. If you have any other questions leave me know!
Thanks

Brad is right.
Only if your wheels are regularly at full droop and full lock simultaneously do you need Vette lines. Since you probably don't motocross or baja your car, you should be fine. I used stainless f-bod lines per Sam's advice.

i went through the same thing when i did my C5 swap. LS1 lines will work, but personally id feel more comfortable with lines just an inch longer. if you can get lines made that are just a bit longer, itd be best.

its nice , but dont forget you should use 17" wheels
i did it and now i'm going to install B/S street lite wheels but the daeler told me you cant
