The Brembo HTC is also a very good fluid to use.
Also look over on the Corvette Forum C7 for sale threads and there’s several J56 brakes for sale, same caliper as ZL1 just different colors.
Hell there’s even a few J57 CCM calipers if you wanna go all out like I’m doing.
I would suggest a rebuild new inner and outer seals, the J56 and J57 pistons are the same diameter just a little different in depth, Racing Brake makes a cool set pistons as well the contact points are scalloped.
So good luck on your upgrade and if you need anything shoot me a message.

I was debating on going for C6 ZR1 or whatever C7 Corvette front, 6-pot brake calipers, but I figured they might need specific brake rotors and pads (I forgot at the moment). If you know the specific setups, feel free to share.
I've been trying to find old, used 2-pc 5th gen Camaro SS 1LE or ZL1 front brake rotors, but don't know where to find new rotor rings for them...
