Brake upgrade... SS->ZL1 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello!
Do I have to change brake lines when upgrading front brakes from SS to ZL1?
Or can I use SS brake lines with ZL1 calipers?
Thanks for help!

Short answer is yes.

There is a long thread on doing the 6 piston swap that includes part numbers.

Thanks!

ZL1 and CTS-V front brake lines and calipers are the same, right?

ZL1, CTSV, and Z06 Brembo 6 pistons are the same. ZL1 and CTSV front rotors are the same.

And brake lines? ZL1 and CTS-V are the same? But different than SS?

Don't know about the CTSV but the ZL1 and SS are different. Most people go with the Goodridge stainless steel flex lines 12227

Thanks for help!

If ZL1 and CTS-V calipers are the same then brake lines should also fit...
