Do you have to change the master cylinder when you upgrade the brakes? Do you need a bigger one?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

@garyruth79 no you have to change the proportion valve .

[@garyruth79]

Thank you for answering! I just have one more question, if you don't mind, and that is what year and what make and model of proportional valve would I use?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

Got to willwood website and get the right one for your application. I’m going with all willwood master cylinder and prop valve.

What is the part number for the caliper? And is that the hybrid blazer kit?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

The calipers are discontinued your going to have to go to junk yard or a corvette forum. It took me 1 1/2 to find the other 3 calipers to finish my brakes. Give me a day and I’ll get you the part numbers for the brackets

[@drswigermd]

Pablo The factory wheel studs are too short for Your wheel or Any wheel? Why do they need to be changed? Does the larger caliper necessitate that you change the studs?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

Yes, because of the bigger calipers now I need a higher offset of a wheel and depending on the wheel wether 1 piece or 3 piece might need a spacer. The factory blazer spindles bolts are just way too short

[@pablosbuickgarage]

Also the arp bolts are way stronger

[@drswigermd]

Got it. Thanks for the reply

[@Dee-lj4bh]

Good job looking good

[@shanemcclaran3012]

I have yet to see any one do a video of the improved stopping distance of the big brake upgrade on their cars. From say 70 mph to 0 and the distance it takes to stop compared to the original smaller brakes that came on their car. I think it would be very helpful to know if your stopping 20-100 ft shorter distance with the bigger brakes

[@pablosbuickgarage]

Lol I’ll find out in a couple years lol I’m a long way from finding out. But it looks cool 😎

[@pablosbuickgarage]

I’m sure there is a big difference. It’s better than that single piston. You know that feeling of I’m stepping on the brake and why is it taking so long to slow down. Lol

[@shanemcclaran3012]

@@pablosbuickgarage I'm sure the 14inch brakes look mighty impressive. I'm on a tiny budget. My big brake kit is from a 2004 firebird with the ws6 option package 12 inch frt 11inch rear disc brakes. I have a couple different wheel choices to choose from. C5 staggered Vette wheels or Riddler 606 18 inch staggered wheels for my 86 442. Thank you for your video. And fast reply

I'm trying to do this as well what brake hose did you use?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

At what point? The frame run or the caliper to the frame? For the caliper to the frame I ordered it from kore3 the make the conversion for that. And the frame runs I ran teflon brake lines

[@wilmerdiaz2218]

Hi, thanks for the video, what another car uses that kind of spindles?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

I believe the blazer and the s10 pickup other than that I’m not sure.

[@wilmerdiaz2218]

Thanks for the answer....I was looking for the same calipers on the summit page but it just appeared the wildwood brand and those are more expensive, I wonder if there are the same you used...

[@josiahisrael2740]

[@pablosbuickgarage]

It is 99-2001 blazer 2wheel drive spindle. I don’t remember the part number. Just make sure it is a 2 wheel drive spindle

[@jamiegrant7263]

Do you have to use the shims on the stock blazer caliper I’m getting that same gap with o ring on the hub but it sits flush when I remove it

[@patracy]

Could one use dropped blazer spindles? My Monte sits high on the front and I wanted to lower it.

[@pablosbuickgarage]

I’m actually not sure about that

[@justinpratt1511]

What part numbers on front and rear caliper brackets and what are u running on rear calipers

[@pablosbuickgarage]

Justin I have the 2002 blazer set up in front and the gn axle. He doesn’t really have part numbers you have to email him with what you have front and rear and he will tell you what you need. His name is Tobin. Really cool guy. I’m running 2013 z06 6 pistons front and rear. Sorry for the delayed response.

[@drswigermd]

Pablo Are the corvette calipers base or Z06, or Z51 or does it matter?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

I based mines in the 2013 z06. I think the z51 came out with the 4 piston calipers in front

[@drswigermd]

@@pablosbuickgarage I appreciate it. You always respond quickly and have helped. Install on a 98 S10 Will also have to see if I need a spacer. Thanks

Oh ok nice setup... I might use the same setup for my SS Montecarlo... Im using my rebuilt 7.5 rearend with moser axles right now with the Detroit truetrac posi, so hopefully these calipers will fit & work with it..

[@ersintozduman6914]

Great video I have the Gnx replica 16” I wonder if this setup will fit. What size wheel are you using for this setup?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

I don’t think those will fit. You need a high offset wheel like the corvette. You also need a 19” wheel

[@ersintozduman6914]

Ok thanks bro I need to find a upgrade from the stock setup for the rims I have.

You can use the stock blazer set up instead of putting the kore3 bracket and vette rotor use the blazer.

Hello, I have a question if I could install such brakes on my 1970 Chevelle SS. Do you have any suggestions if not these?

Wilwood. It will cost you but worth it. It’s hard to find these brakes now and if you do they want good money for them. You can do the whole set up just buy willwood calipers for corvette z06 2013

Thank you for your answer, what do you suggest for the rear brakes?@@pablosbuickgarage

[@pablosbuickgarage]

@@michalsuchomski5863 I went with the 6 piston also. I also bought the wilwood single piston electric e brake. But vette uses a 4 position set up which you could also buy from wilwood. So it matches the front if you decide to go with wilwood

Caliper part number?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

172-2553 is a starting point. Go up or down on the last 2 digits and it will change the color of the caliper or be left or right. Your going to have a hard time finding any of them on eBay or roc auto it’s a discontinued part so your best luck is a vette forum or junkyard

[@intisty7686]

Will this setup fit stock 15inch wheels

No 18.50 or bigger

[@arttatham2948]

All of it.

[@pablosbuickgarage]

lol all of what?

[@alfonsocarlos8694]

What part number on calipers

[@pablosbuickgarage]

So here is the trick part. The part numbers start with 172- The one I have in my hand is part number 172-2553 that will be for the front left in grey the passenger side is 172-2552. For a different color you have to go up or down on the last 2 digits.(172-2557) but at this time good luck finding these calipers as they are discounted since COVID. You’ll find better luck at a junk yard. I’ve been trying to get 2 more caliper with no luck. And the used ones are double the cost.

[@rocketmc_customs4878]

Do you have part numbers?

[@rocketmc_customs4878]

On the calipers

[@pablosbuickgarage]

Rocket MC_Customs it depends on what color you want but 172-2553 is right and 127-2552 is left in metallic grey.

[@pablosbuickgarage]

Rocket MC_Customs go to rock auto and type in Chevy corvette 7.0 brake and wheel hub , calipers and it will give you all the colors and brake calipers

[@phxgold]

Will this set up work on my 78 regal? And I have 20" us mags c10s will I need spacers?

[@pablosbuickgarage]

Yes it should. You will need spacers the caliper is 2.5” thick from where the wheel sits on the rotor. So it’s basically a high offset like the vette
