flip the rotors over, put em back on, put lugnuts on about 6 threads and pull the rotor a few times. they slide out but it takes force

The backing plates for the LT1 are not the 4 bolt type?

same four bolt pattern on the flange but the caliper mounts are different. Also when you use one of the moser bolt-in rears on an LT1 car they have you put some spacers in to space out the axles like 1/8" If you are going to swap caliper mounts/backing plates you will have to take off the bearings so I would get the spacers also from moser.

Unless you are going to use the LS1 brakes on the rear
