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".

Will do, do you happen to know the part numbers for the left and right abutment bracket?

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!
