    I did the LS 1 brake conversion on my 92 Camaro but I made sure my brake line was on top of my brake vs the bottom like you did for bleeding reasons

      Anything is better than the factory brakes. Since my pads have broken in, the braking power is sooooo much better!

    You have the passenger side caliper on the driver side. The bleeder screw should always be on top, not bottom. Air rises which is why the bleeder is on top.

      ?? No they are on the correct side. Bleeders are facing up. If they weren't I wouldn't have brakes, and they work awesome with the C6 upgrade!

    Just to be correct, the only reason you used a spacer is because of your rims are based off a corvette spacing? I plan to do this to my drag car after my 17” wheels show up

    • @EssMotorsports

      Yes the only reason I run a spacer is to adapt to my wheels. It really didn't have anything to do with the brakes. It just gave me lots of clearance to the caliper. 17" will be close, I have 18" rims. I went with the c6 z51, u could also run standard c6 brakes which are just a tiny bit smaller

      I had to use a 1” spacer because my XXR 18x 9” wheel hit my steering control arm
