What about these?

I read I can order ones for ZL1 and use them on SS or ZL1 Calipers? But not the other way around?

I’ve not looked into the specs that deeply, but if that’s correct, then just get the ZL1 kit because then you’ll be prepared if you decide to upgrade to ZL1/Z06 six pistons.

ZL1 brake lines for the fronts are longer. If you swap SS Brembos out for ZL1/1LE 6 pot the stock SS lines are too short. And I like Goodridge, have mine for 11 years and track use. Not saying other aren't good, but I know they work.

So the only difference in the kits is the Front ZL1 are longer?

Yes, on the SS caliper the connection is made near the top of the caliper. The ZL1 front caliper the connection is toward the bottom of the caliper. The flexible part of the brake line starts from the frame and connects to the support on the strut, then from there goes down to the connection port on the caliper. So the brake line sort of flows down from the frame to the caliper. Since the ZL1 connection port is lower, the line has to be slightly longer. The banjo connections are pretty much the same size. The stock ones on a '11 are square and Goodridge are round on my ZL1 and SS lines, but it's the inside diameter that matters.

That’s pretty standard on any braided lines I’ve ever seen for any car.
