It took me 2 days, 2 cans of Liquid wrench. 1 metal iron bar to pry against and 2 large c-clamps to free all 4 rotors on my '92 LT-1. Time well spent, but I kept a beer handy to help keep my cool. I must have gone through a case in those 2 days. :D

fronts are easy, rears are a bit more in-depth via axle nut, etc. Rears would take about two hours, fronts an hour with right tools on hand. Have fun :)

You could always upgrade to the C-5 rotors... :D
That's what I plan to do!
