Are you looking for brake kit for a vette or camaro? You can get tailored brake kits for C3 Corvette from PBC, which uses Willwood stuff or bolt on BAER kit.

From other post I am assuming you have a c-3, depending on your budget. If price is no object I can't say enough good about precision brake company. The best on customer service. They are on the pricey side from what I saw,but you get what you pay for. I have a c-2 and upgraded the spindles to c-3 spindles (larger bearings, thicker casting) and VBP tubular A-arms. If you use the VBP A-arms and composite spring they recommend their shocks or dbl adj shocks. I ended up using SSBC calipers and slotted rotors. My goal is quarter mile track with local road racing and still be road worthy. I purchased the alum. calipers from Corvette Central (cheaper then direct or summit racing). With the cars wieght and the right pads for the type of driving you plan on doing, they should work fine.
