Re: LT1 GenV swap

Slow progress, but 2 tubes fully welded, 3rd all tacked and ready to be welded. Ran out of time tonight.

Fits pretty good



Time got divided between another project. Got a good deal on a set of the Wilwood c-10 pro spindle kit. With hours of research and cad work and think I got a working setup. 330mm x26mm /13" x 1.25 rotor on the C6 Corvette calipers. Corvette rotors wont work on these massive hubs. Got another rotor in mind that only requires a small mod. It looks like it may not clear my 17" torq lite American racing wheels.. they did a goofy stupid inner barrel design and it has such an angle it makes putting wheel weights on a bear.. so if the 13" setup doesn't fit, just gonna use the larger 350mm / 13.7" rotor and c6 caliper.
