Firehawk C6 Brake Upgrade I have acquired a set of 2008 C6 Brake calipers for a very generous price and will be installing them on my Firehawk here in the next week.
However, I have a quick question I hope a few of you LS1 Gurus can chime in on...
My main concern is whether or not the factory C6 OEM rear rotors will fit on the F Body without any issues? I am going to purchase the OEM Replacements from “GM Parts Dir” and would like to know if the C6 Rotors would be a direct replacement for the rears, or should do I need aftermarket Front C6 Rotors and aftermarket rear F Body Rotors...?
Thank you for your time; I really appreciate any insight regarding this topic.

I read it... I read that thread...
I already have the brackets, Stainless Steel Brake Lines and Hawk Pads for the front brakes... I am about to order the rotors, and would like to know if the rears are a direct bolt on from the C6 Corvette...

Do you have the adaptor brackets for the front calipers?? In order to use the C6 front rotors, you need to have the F-body to C6 adaptor brackets for the calipers.
