Reccomend me some brands and exactly what I should get. I need to do ALL new brakes, obviously all disc. The brakes on it now are shot. I want to do a nice brake. However I don't want to spend $800+ type deal. I have about $400. What should I get, anything you would reccomend? Anything to stay away from? Thanks for the help once again.

rotors
talk to mike at rotorsonline.com tell him mike from the lt1 forum sent you. He was able to get me all 4 rotors (slotted and drilled) with ceramic pads all the way around. I spent less than $300 shipped. he also has a high performance setup he can do for like $450.
you can go to the website or call him at 909-2380-0908

The brakes suck on the LT1 cars. I'm currently collecting parts for a C5 Corvette brake upgrade. You can spend around $500 if you get cheaper rotors. Otherwise you can find a LS1 front brake kit for $200 or so. What I found with the LS1 swaps is that you will likely be spending another few hundred on upgraded rotors and pads anyway. If I were you I would just turn your stock rotors, and get some good pads. Save your money and upgrade later. Thats what I did, and I'm pretty happy with my Hawk ceramic pads on stock rotors. They don't compare to the LS1 brakes, but they work a bit better than stock. I don't see slotted rotors helping out lt1 brakes at all. I've heard people say that they do, but I just can't see it helping with such a small rotor size.Comment
