LS1 Brake Swap
Well Ive been talkin about this for the longest time, so I figured Id finally do it. Heres all the parts ive got pics of so far. New modded spindles, brackets, Earls braided lines, hubs with longer studs, and new bearings. Ebmiller on Thirdgen.org supplied me all the parts and they r great quality, I would definatly recommend him. Im hoping the rest of my parts show up this week. Im waiting on calipers, carriers, rotors, and those nifty lil CAMARO caliper decals. Anyway, onto the pics.....

Makin more progress, rotors are supposed to be here tommorow then i can throw it all together and get to work on the rear.
Heres the front suspenion, many new parts, everything has been cleaned and painted. We had a hell of a time tring to get the control arms in, NEVER again.

And i couldnt resist mounting up one of the new wheels, unfortunatly you can barly see the brakes behind these. You kno what that calls for, new wheels. Seventeen inch snypers are startin to look real good.
