    If you want to do the rebuild for me id be fine with that too. Im in no hurry to get them installed, my hawk pads on the LT1 calipers are still working great and have tons of life left.
    I got everything from O'reilly's, seals are $5.99 for the front (you need 2) and if you are doing rear then you only need one front seal kit for the rear... Really that is the bare minimum that you need, because you can reuse the sliders and caliper bolts and clips... I bought all new... including bleeders. Still cheaper then new caliper. I have also had good luck sandblasting the clips, and the bolts and making them like new again, so that is a option as well.

    Are LS1 brakes that much of an upgrade compared to LT1?

    another Big Thanks to BigJon, coming over when he was tired and lack of sleep, we bled the brakes yesterday and started body work again...

    Fenders are in primer and so is the ac delete panel. Its one step closer...
