Z51 brakets on fbody?
I just got a c5 setup for a fbody and wanted to see when I upgrade the roters/pads, if i could go with the 13.4 rotors from z51 c6 with just the brackets ? also can you use the rear brackets as well on an fbody?

Yes, all you need to use the larger Z51 rotors is to get the Z51 caliper bracket. Be warned: you will most likely need 18" wheels to clear the larger rotor (some have squeezed it into a 17", but didn't run it because it's really, really, really close).
The rear brakes are similar but I don't think they bolt right on. The calipers are very close in piston size, so there really isn't much point in messing with them.
