From what I have read is that you can find hardware, brackets. To convert to the C5 rotor and brake setup.

Camaro96, how did you get that spindle cut so well? It looks perfect.

Nope. For C5 brakes you have to cut the ear and use a bracket. HOWEVER..........I am pretty sure that the LS1 spindle will fit the Gen 1 CTSV Brembo caliper without issue and use a C6Z rotor. BUT, you will need to have the proper wheel offset to clear the caliper. http://ls1tech.com/forums/suspension...ll-w-pics.html
