Default Blank Z51 Rotor

I'm upgrading my rotors on my Formula(which has C5 brakes) and I'm wondering if anyone makes a blank Z51 rotor? I've been searching all over, and all I have found were slotted or drilled/slotted rotors. I would really prefer a blank rotor. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Do you want a C5 or C6 rotor?

I'm looking for a C6 rotor.

I looked at auto anything, and all I found was C6 rotors, I didn't find anything that said they were C6 Z51 specific rotors.

Honestly, I guess I could deal with the slotted rotors, I just would prefer a regular blank rotor.

Also, anyone know where I can pick up a C6 Z51 abutment bracket?

Thanks again.

Try a search on Ebay. I just bought a Z51 rotor set with abutments to convert std C6 "kit".

Here's another bump for Gene at GMPartshouse-- just bought the caliper abutments (brackets) from him a few weeks back and, like always, Gene went out of his way to help make sure I had them when needed!
