Default something ive been wondering

if you do a c5 brake conversion, when the rotors get bad, to get new ones would you have to buy rotors intended for corvettes due to the cut you made or can you use rotors intended for camaros still?

The C5 brake conversion uses C5 rotors.
The C5 rotor is about an inch larger than the F-body rotor.
When the C5 rotor wears out, replace it with another C5 rotor.
This conversion means that you can no longer use the smaller F-body rotor.

Vette replacement rotors aren't really all that expensive from what I remember.
