he means the 84-87 kit or the 88-96 kit. the brackets for those years are different.

If I was doing a C5 swap, I would just pick up the adapter bracket from the cheapest source then pick up the remaining parts from the C5 parts for sale board. It's cheaper since those guys are all going C6 brakes right now and are lookign to unload their stock C5 parts.
