I looked up the calipers on Rock Auto, they are different part #'s. I'll keep looking to see if I can find any information on the bolts.

Is it the bolt that attaches the caliper to the guide pins?

Yes I believe so. I can slide the boot and such where that little bolt would attach to the slide pins

It is not the big bolt that holds the caliper bracket. Just the small bolts that hold the caliper itself to the caliper bracket.

From what I can find, the bolts are the same from 1988-2013 on standard corvettes.
