Need help identifying a Caliper I have a 98 V6 Camaro, from what I can tell it has LS1 brakes swapped on it, unfortunately the slider pin was seized and broke when I was trying to remove it. I called up a guy I know and he has a new set of calipers. They look IDENTICAL to the ones I have except there are no ribs on the back. When I went to mount them the bracket was slightly different and it hits the rotor preventing it from turning.
From what I can tell these are NOT Camaro calipers, can anyone verify this to me? there are no ribs on the back half of it, it is smooth.
The caliper bracket that's on my car currently is pretty much the same as the one pictured below but the mounting bolt holes are spaced out a little more.
Are these V6 Calipers? if so then why does every parts store around me only have ONE listing for Camaro rotor size? V6 and V8 show to be identical.
here is a pic of my current bracket (top) and other bracket that came with those calipers (bottom)
