I have a Wilwood 6-piston setup that I tested on my car a few years back.
Front brake kit for an F-body, 6-piston calipers, slotted rotors with aluminum hats (12.88"), SS lines, brackets, some brake pads (I can figure out what they are if needed) and LS1 spindles (with cut ears for the kit install). The kit takes the 16mm brake pads. I think the kit will only work with 17" wheels. Most stock calipers I believe take the 20mm pad (my Stoptechs do for instance). $800 plus shipping (The kit is around $1,800 new, and then you have to modify your spindles). Feel free to check Wilwood's website. I can take pics next week if needed. This post has been edited by MikeP-99Z: Aug 19 2009, 03:26 PM |

I'm interested, but I want to put these on a C4. This kit uses the radial mount 6R caliper, right? Where does the caliper bracket mount to? Do you have an exact part number?

I'll dig them out of the box tomorrow and verify the brackets, mounting stuff, and try to x-reference with Wilwood's website for part numbers.

The calipers are part number 120-7228-RS and 120-7229-RS - Billet Narrow Superlite 6 Lug Mount. http://www.wilwood.com/CaliperProd.aspx?itemno=120-7228-RS
rotors are 12.88" hats are part number 170-6837 bracket is part number 250-6839 pads are 7416 series The whole kit was 140-6743 http://www.wilwood.com/BrakeKitsProd.aspx?itemno=140-6743 Install instructions: http://www.wilwood.com/Start/pdf/ds406.pdf Granted I had these on my '99, and I am including the already cut front spindles in the deal. Chad - I'm not sure these will work on the vette. This post has been edited by MikeP-99Z: Aug 13 2009, 01:17 AM |

Chad - I'm not sure these will work on the vette. Thanks for the info. While the adapter bracket would likely bolt onto my hub bolts, my spindles are thicker, so I think you're right in that this won't fit. The C4 kit uses a radial mount caliper, and the adapter bracket bolts to the existing spindles ears. Good luck with the sale. This post has been edited by Mojave: Aug 13 2009, 02:54 AM |
