Default 77 brakes

Hey guys I just inherited a Corvette tan/ brown interior 77 from my dad with just 39k on the clock. I want to replace the calipers with ss o-ringed units. My question is who makes the best? Been looking at VBP any thoughts.

Advantage auto parts. Lifetime warranty includes seals. Unless your racing it, nothing wrong with stock calipers with SS sleeves.
