Bigger Rotors?

Does anyone know of a kit a way to get C5 rotors on a Trans am or camaro for that matter. I believe they are about 13".

Look into LG motorsports brackets if you'd like to JUST run the C5 size rotors. If you want the improved quality of the C5 caliper, then possibly look into the Umi kit and others that are made for THOSE calipers.

I have a C5 conversion kit I'm trying to sell. Everything is new, never used.

Bob Bishop brackets
GM OEM C5 PABs with guide pins
GM OEM C5 Durastop rotors
GM OEM C5 Durastop brake pads

Bought to install on my '98 TA and sold the car before I got them on.

PM me if interested.

c5 rotor is 12.8 vented disc, fyi.

UMI comes to mind as far as braketry to swap onto an fbody.
Talk to Ryan about it, he will tell you whats up.

FYI, Mitch's package is a good deal. And, he's a good guy.

Also, the C5 discs are a great value. They are easily replaceable - every single Autozone has replacements for mere pennies. They are a good system.
