Default Brake Upgrade

I'm planning on upgrading to C5 brakes on the front. Do the stock C5 rotors fit a 94? Where do I get the mounting plates for the calipers?

Thanks

:cheers: Adapters for calipers, look for Ed Salinas right here on this section of the Forum, he should be along shortly :D

Calipers and roters have to be C5, the can be purchased used on C5 parts for sale section of the Forum or new at several places including superior performance chevy

You may need C5 wheels or at least adapter/spacers! The C5 caliper is considerably wider than C4

Great upgrade, you'll love it

:seeya

:iagree:
A-molds will work but if you have sawblades, you will need to space them out 1/2 inch or change wheels.
