I did the 5 lug conversion too. Looks good get some pics when your rotors come in.

Are yall going the fill-n-drill method? Ideally, I would like to use stock parts (maybe 'vette?) so I wouldn't have the headache of re-fitting every time I put rotors on.

I actually used a set of C-4 vette calipers, rotors and spindles. I had to build a set of upper a arms and narrowed my lower control arms. I would go with c-5 parts though.

That's what I was thinking about doing, but have not heard of anyone else doing it that way. Do you have a build thread?

Why did you have to modify the uppers/lowers? I was HOPING that a later model vette spindle would bolt up to the stock steering knuckle.
