Here is some info from the small amount of research I have done on the matter :

93-97 F-body (LT1)
10.93" Front Rotors

98-02 F-body (LS1)
11.93" Front Rotors

C5/C6 Corvette (Base Models)
12.8" Front Rotors

C5/C6 Corvette (Z51 Package)
13.4" Front Rotors

C6 Corvette (Z06)
14.0" Front Rotors

5th Gen Camaro SS
14.0" Front Rotors

I think the 5th Gen Camaro rotors have the same lug patern but the lug holes are slightly larger. As I posted in the other thread the center bore in the rotor hat is smaller than the 4th Gen/Vette so it will need to be enlarged before it can fit over the hub.

Good luck and don't take what I posted as gospel! I'm sure someone else can correct a few things.
