What kit is right for me? I am about to order some new wheels and I want to change out my brakes while im at it. My current setup is stock everything and painted brake calipers red. I want some slotted and cross-drilled rotors and new calipers too. What kit do yall think looks the best and performst the best for the price? I havent ever really researched much about brakes for ls1s so any help would be appreciated, thanks alot.

No offense but are you blind or lazy? There's enough info on the first page of "Handling & Braking" to answer all your questions.

There's PLENTY of brake information out there... especially with all the threads we've had lately. More than most can handle looking at.
Now go do some searching... but here's a hint. Slotted/Xdrilled = BAD. BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD. BAAAAAAAD. Best bang for the bucks, C5 kit. Want it pretty? Get the Z06 calipers. 'nuf said, g'day.

Pretty much... I'd recommend getting the "TrackBrackets" which are the new production run of Bob Bishops brake brackets. They're the strongest and most well engineered out there. He also has the original equipment list for all required parts.
