I have some old brakes off a 67-68 Firebird, a somewhat rare 4 piston option. From what I understand it's the same Caliper as the Vette, the 11" rotor I'm not so sure of.
It has to have the taper to clear the caliper and bolts to the hub, they were originally run in 14" rims but I have them in 15's now.
I'd been running single piston brakes and literally ran out of brakes at CMP this past weekend, so I pulled these old parts to do a mock up.

Can any of you Vette guys help me out, the only replacement rotor I've found is a solid one piece, I'd prefer a slotted 2 piece but a slotted one would be ok.

Thanks.

Here is a 2 piece rotor/hub set-up from Vette brakes.

It is listed for 68-82 Corvette but I know VB&P makes some Camaro stuff so you may just want to give them a call and see if they can help.

I would check at VBP. I think they have some Camaro/Firebird stuff too and they may be able to help. FWIW I think C2/C3 Corvette rotors were 12".

You'll need adequate cooling air and good fluid for the brakes or you'll loose these too.

edit: he beat me to it

Hey, I know you!

I've checked a few places and ran into several issues.
I might be able to just swap everything to Vette stuff but I think the spindle bearing is different.
So... if someone in the Southeast just happens to have some C-3 spindles and brakes, maybe from doing an upgrade? I'd like to rent or borrow your parts for a mock up.
I'm in the Greenville SC area.

I know it's a long shot but I thought I'd ask.

Thanks

There is a C3 specific section of the forum. I guarentee those guys have the spare parts you're looking for laying around.

The good folks at Van Steel can take care of you.
