The KORE3 Ø325mm C5/C6 Front Big-Brake Kit for the Chevy C10, 19971-1976 Impala and other compatible applications adapts high-performance, high-quality, 5th or 6th generation (C5/C6) Corvette brake components to your vehicle. Please refer to the KORE3 GM Application Chart for details regarding specific vehicle compatibility.
The C5/C6 rotors measure Ø325mm x 32mm thick (Ø12.80" x 1.26") and have either directional or pillar vane construction, providing higher brake torques, additional thermal mass, improved feel and better cooling for more aggressive, sustained driving without brake fade.
C5/C6 front calipers are pressure cast aluminum with full width stiffening ribs in order to maximize caliper rigidity, extend service life, and improve pedal firmness and feel, all in a compact, lightweight package. The C6 calipers are interchangeable with the C5 calipers and are approximately 25% more rigid due to additional material across the bridge of the calipers. Both C5 and C6 calipers have twin-Ø40.5mm pistons and utilize a pad abutment design, where the braking torque is transmitted directly from the pads into the pad abutment brackets and the spindles they mounted to, leading to better performance you can feel at the pedal.
There is vast aftermarket support for C5/C6 rotors and brake pads to suit nearly anybody's needs and/or budget. This KORE3 big-brake kit provides more braking performance per dollar than any other making it ideally suited for a variety of builds, whether you're grocery-getting, pro-touring, or a little bit of both.
