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.

Got a question for you guys. I assume the Z51 brake package use the same caliper as regular C5/C6. So did the UIM or LG or Trackbracket adaptor be able to mount the 13.4" rotor with C5/C6 caliper?

The conventional C5 adapter brackets will allow you to do the conversion.

If you want to run the 14" rotor, you'll need C6 Z06 calipers, if you want to run the 13.6" rotor, you'll need the C6 Z51 PAB, caliper and hoses.

If they're different, can anyone post the part number for C6 Z51 stuff (caliper, PAB, host and pad)? I can only find Z51 rotor on eBay but not the caliper. And I'll order PAB and host from GMpartsdirect.com. Thanx alot.
