Thanks for the info trackbird. I guess my only main question is on the front can I still use my stock size rotors cause i have read several post of where they would fit an some sayin that you would need a bracket. And also if they will fit with my stock rotors will it fit under my torq thrust II's. They are 17x9.5 I guess that is the main question???
You can use them with the stock rotors. It will change your brake bias slightly to the rear (the rears will do slightly more work than before and the fronts will do slightly less), but it seems to be a small change that most don't notice.
Or, you can use a conversion bracket and switch to the C5 rotor, caliper, pad abutment bracket, brake hose, etc and upgrade your brakes. This is the more expensive option, but it will perform better. It all depends on your budget, but to answer your basic question, yes, you can bolt the C5 calipers onto your stock brakes on and LS1 Camaro/Firebird.

Aight I appreciate the help trackbird.. Prolly wut I do before I get to much more involved in this is to see if I can find that anti rattle spring first that way I know I can get them an use them first since they had a problem finding one as well.. But I appreciate the info though...
