Z06 calipers on 15"rotors on a SSS
Did the Zo6 brake upgrade alittle while back and there was room for improvement for the front brakes. So after alot of R & D by a fellow SilveradoSS.com member my SSS is now wearing 15" rotors up front. Some before and after pics.
Some parts before the install.
14" powerslots on the front.
Reason for the 15" upgrade (unused brake pad)
Now the 15" rotors (very big difference in looks and stopping power)
Rear set-up (still using this set-up, no need to upgrade)

They don't. They will nose dive The Red Brick, but I am taking it easy on them for the 1st 500 or so miles. I also did ss brakelines and Super Blue Race brake fluid.

I bough a full system mendrel bent system headers to tail pipe and am having issues. The nice headers I got don't fit and the cat back hits the quadrasteer. I ordered some mendrel bends to try to fix the exhaust, but i can't find a shop to weld the stainless. I think I may ask around the shipyard for a welder that wants some side work. Once thats done I go down to slowhawk for the final tune. Gotta keep it together so i can run it next spring at epping.

hmmm on the truck.. I want to weld all the joints, plus i need a cross over pipe put in.. then i need the bends put in to go around the quadrasteer motor. I'm not sure if i can find some one than can cut/fab up all the pipes in the truck and weld them. I could try to cut up all the pipes to fit, but then then truck wouldn't be able to move...
