Default C5 Rotor Conversion Package for 1993-2002 F-Bodies!!!

Hey everyone! Well, I put my waterjet guy and metric contact to good use by developing a conversion kit (brackets, spacers, bolts and washers) for 1993-2002 F-Bodies (some modification to spindle required on some models, do a search, plenty of detailed write-ups and it is super easy) that allows you to use the larger C5 front rotors while still retaining your stock calipers.

I also teamed up with a former LS1tech sponsor to be able to offer cross drilled and slotted C5 rotors to go with the brackets

These will be for sale on my website for $375 + shipping BUT to get some out there and on some cars I am offering a sale to kick off my brake line (pun intended)...

From now untill the end of the year (under a week ) you get them CHEAP... You get both rotors and conversion kits for only $325 SHIPPED!!!

Here's what the rotors look like...



and here's (basically, I added slots for weight savings) what the conversion kits look like...



Here's a bunch of parts about to go on a friend's car (I can get anything you see in the pic that you want, just PM me)...



So, once again, for a limited time only SAVE $50 AND SHIPPING COSTS you only pay $325 SHIPPED for both front C5 drilled and slotted rotors AND the neccessary conversion brackets.

Just paypal $325 to madelisle@yahoo.com and put "C5 Conversion PACKAGE" in the note... Thanks and Happy Holidays!!!

I forgot to mention, YOU DO NOT have to cut stock spindles for this design, they bolt right on

Other manufacturerers' brackets you have to cut/grind spindles... Of course, for 1993-1997's you would want to upgrade to the LS1 spindles

will these interfere with 17x9.5" TT IIs ?
Will they interfere with 15x4" bgart racing wheels? I have them too.

Pretty sure they are an inch bigger than stock.

TTII's yes... Bogarts I highly doubt it. Pretty sure those don't fit stock without grinding the calipers...

I have the Rotors Online C5 rotors (which are nice btw), with some other caliper brackets and stock calipers. Everything fits fine under oem ZR1s so there shouldnt be a problem at all with 18s.

Definitely fit under 18's... I don't see why they wouldn't fit under 17" TTII's either but I don't know for sure.

His is an almost identical setup.

We do sell new calipers. C5 Vette calipers are $200 for the pair. There is an additional $80 core charge though that you can get back when you send in your F-Body calipers (don't have to send in C5 calipers, yours are fine) or just pay the core charge and send no calipers in.

I know what you're saying but I had read of people saying they fit... I'm going to throw a set on my car so we can throw one of your rims on and check it out...
