4 Piston Big Brake Upgrade from 2019-20

Thanks! Also, why a 6.2? Aren't they having hella problems with the 6.2s? Honest question, I don't have an opinion one way or another.

I'm using an LS3 6.2L on my 73 Camaro so no DOD/AFM to fail. All aluminum so less weight up front and easy to get 500hp our of them while retaining great drivabilty and should get around 30mpg on the hwy in my 73.

My 2018 Yukon Denali had an AFM lifter failure at 88K miles so I deleted the system and at 115K miles with more power & better mileage.

My 2014 SS Sedan has almost 140K miles on its 6.2L LS3 and runs like new.

Nice! where do you get those LS3 aluminum blocks? And is it possible without ransoming planet Earth to pay for it?

I watched auctions for 14 months before buying a 2011 Camaro 2SS for it's LS3 6.2L & 6 speed manual. Paid $6,400 but was too nice so I'm driving it now. 4 months later bought another 2011 Camaro 2SS for $5,300 then sold over $3,000 in parts leaving me with a great running LS3, 6 speeds manual trans, power heated leather seats, console, brake & fuel systems plus complete wiring harness.

Here's the one I kept. Even came with the carbon fiber hood.

Do you have a 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, or 2006?

I am just concerned you didn't see that this thread is not for your 2016.

well the previous models are using basically same parts that I can use for 2016.

the parts are from 2019-2022..so why wouldn't bolt on to my 2016.

Fair enough. I know almost nothing about the later models.

I'm getting this mod completed next weekend, but did a dry fit this weekend. I'll be using these 17" wheels from the 2020+ Silverado and they clear perfectly, as I figured they would.

For the front calipers I machined some steel spacers that are 4mm thick to go between spindle mounts and the caliper to center it on the rotors. If you're going PPV 6 pistons up front i haven't done them yet.

POWER STOP Z362173 front pads



BENDIX SDR6885 front rotors



NUGEON 97P17504A/97P17504B front calipers



BENDIX SDR5729 rear rotors



POWER STOP Z261718 rear pads for SS Model



GM GENUINE 1722715/1722716 rear camaro calipers SS Model



And the link for rear caliper adapters

Finally getting around to upgrading the rear brakes with the parts listed.

My question is did you have to upgrade the brake lines and banjo bolts or easy swap over just change the washers?
