Already have SS lines?

Go to the air strip that you use for all your testing and do some 100-0 stops, see how the stock brakes fade. Then do it with the big-uns... curiosity is killing me

Pedders SS lines are on the way.

And as a matter of fact... I do... But Pete has pretty much validated these brakes as that's what he ran on his Camaro... The don't stop much shorter. But he does say the big difference is they won't fade like the Stock fronts will. Maybe we can get him to chime in. The only difference is I'm running ZL1 2 piece rotors... and he ran the CTSV one piece rotors.

I put SS brake lines on my stock Brembos. That alone made a huge difference in how the brakes feel. No more mushy pedal.

Yep, that's what I want to see... Fade!

The rags are already bragging the ZL1 has little fade after running at-speed lap after lap

The stock brakes will help you learn where all the good run-off areas are on the track
