not sure about fitting on stock brackets, but the c5/c6 upgrade isn't too bad to do. You end up w/ about 1 more inch of rotor diameter.

If you're looking to upgrade your stock setup, get better pads, put in a good hi temp fluid, and install stainless lines.

StopTech makes a kit, Wilwood makes a kit, AP Racing makes a Corvette kit which I'm sure can be used, and Brembo makes a kit. Google is your friend on finding them all

That's why I asked the question..I found nothing. I don't want bigger rotors just a upgraded replacement calipers. I have a set of 15's for drag strip duties and still want to use them. I all ready have pfc pads SS lines. The pedal has been spongy for a while and that's what happens to our race cars when the caliper gets ware on it. I thought there might be a better replacement caliper availible.
