Default C5 Z06 OEM brake pads - who makes them?

I've been told that GM put HP + from Hawk on the OEM C5 Z06.

Is that true?

AC-Delco pads P/N# 171-0872 (GM 19181427) are most likely the closest you'll currently find.

I highly doubt that - HP+ are way too dirty and noisy for most Corvette owners!

Ok, so they are not Hawk HP+.

Who make the OEM pads and what are they?
