What calipers/brackets do I have?
I bought what I thought was a set of Z51 calipers and brackets to send off to be powder coated for my car. Well, when I went to have them installed, they said the brackets were too small and wouldn't fit. The calipers and brackets don't have any GM part numbers on them, but I did find the following numbers, can anyone tell me if these are Z51 parts or non-Z51 parts?
Front calipers have no numbers whatsoever.
Rear calipers have the number "K242-011C" stamped into them.
Front brackets have the number "K332-123C 2" stamped into them.
Rear brackets have the number "K332-124C 4" stamped into them.
Thanks, Shawn

The front calipers are the same part for both Z51 & non Z51.
For the rear calipers both models look similar but the Z51 have 3 MM smaller pistons in them....I do not know the part numbers for eiither model but they will not be the same for Z51 & non Z51.
As for the brackets, the Z51 brackets are deeper as the Z51 rotors are larger diameter, although again I do not the specific part numbers.
A great source of knowledge is our very own "corvette pilot" aka: The Powder Coater, maybe he can/will chime in to clear up your mystery.
