I most likely will not be there due to a leaking front driver's side caliper, seems to be a bit more than just a little leak, so it looks like I'll be upgrading to the ls1 brakes sooner than I thought.

Sorry, I can take pics of whatever you want, or just wait till the next meet.
But I already have all the parts I'll need, as long and the spindles aren't bent, but I had got it with the lid and base, 250 shipped for everything off of ebay. Where at in the Orlando area do you stay? (can pm me if you prefer)

If you guys are going from LT1 brakes to LS1 style I know cause i have tried that you need longer brakes lines. Thought I would throw that out there. I was you did not need longer lines, BUT you need about a 4 inch longer one than the lt1 style.

there's a couple you pull n pay junk yards in Orlando that might have a 98-02 car that you could get the parts off of, or just keep an eye on ebay. When i was looking for the lid and base set up I found one and noticed that the same seller had some complete ls1 brakes for sale too, to I messaged him and got all of it for 250 shipped. All the brake stuff is 100 pounds on its own

the brake lines off of an ls1 car will work right? If not then I'll need brake lines.

Wish I could make it. If you guys get bored afterwards come on over to Central Florida Road Course, I'll be working there tonight. We're open till 2am on Fridays. Gonna be a huge turnout due to hosting an IHRA event that got flooded out up in Georgia, lots of fast cars.
Feel free to say hi @ the top end of the dragstrip, I'll be in the white Dodge safety truck w/ a red shirt on.

I didn't know people were still getting together in this area. I'm on the east side near UCF, and will be heading up there probably around 5:45-6p tonight. If you're on this side of town, PM me and we'll hook up to cruise that way. I'll check back here in an hour or two to see if anyone gets back to me.

YAY, good news, my caliper is not leaking, so my dad and I are thinking that we'll ride on up, and be there till about 8 or so, going fishing in the morning. So N2OMike, you can still see my lid setup.
