Not corvette but pro performance has some options for brake upgrades on these trucks

also have rear matching kits and more budget front and rear kits that use c4 or c5 stock style brakes iirc..
I couldnt find anything to put C6 calipers on any spindle on Little Shop's website, do you have a link?

sorry didnt mean it to sound that way, saw wilwood was mentioned and figured its easier to buy a kit for stock or cheap spindles than use a specific spindle to try and fit other brakes. They make all the stuff to fit wilwood kits on all sorts of stuff, not brackets for oem. Wilwood and c6 are probably about equal, Im guessing its because vette brakes are cheaper..?
if there really isnt anything out there brackets arent super difficult to make, i bet atomic could make some with the right info or file..

I see now. It's about $1800 for a brake and spindle kit, which honestly isn't terrible

I have Wilwood 6 piston front and 4 piston rears on my C5 and the front cost me ~2200, without a spindle 😂

Rear was super cheap in comparison. About 600. Maybe a supply and demand thing

the vette tax is real and crazy, even on places that charge to work on them.
stick to the slow but cheap trucks is my motto..
