Changing from SS to ZL1 brake calipers

Im doing these swap. Im already have the ZL1 calipers, do I need the ZL1 dust covers or the SS ones are the same size? Do I need something else?

rotors are bigger on the ZL1, so dust covers won't fit. You will need calipers, rotors and most likely want/need stainless brake lines.

I just used a zip wheel and modified my SS dust shields. The larger rotors are not a problem just the larger calipers need more clearance.
You will need ZL1 hoses (stock or stainless) as they are a little longer.
