By the information in earlier posts, it looks as if there wouldn't be a kit as of the moment, since the brackets are aftermarket and the factory parts require a valid C6 Z06 VIN# to source, but that's just my assumption.

the package is 1616 from fred beans plus shipping. But you need the c5 adaptor brackets which run about 250 from umi or trackbird to run that setup and of course bigger wheels.

Sorry to beat a dead horse here but i think I may have missed somthing. So far with the bracket kit you can fit c6 z06 "front" brakes on a 4th gen f-body, give you have the wheels to clear the larger calibers. What about the rear, is there a kit for the that?

Although I am sure they will look friggin sweet, I wouldn't reccomend these brakes. I originally considered upgrading to them as well, but after somone else pointed me in the direction of some discussion of them in a Corvette Forum, I learned that they are pretty much junk. At least thats what the general synopsis of them was in the other forum.
I'll try to get the link so you have more info other than just me.
