I have the camaro backing plates and want to put them on my 70 elcamino.
They will need to be drilled to fit the A body bolting pattern.
There is also cut down dust plates for 1LE which is only the bottom half of the plate.
Anyone else do e this?82118821198212182122

After a lot of staring at it like it was an algebra question and I just finished my frootloops and cartoons on a Sunday morning, I may have a plan.
The new cars (1LE, ZL1) only have dust shields to protect the ball joint boots from the rotors heat.
SO, my plan is to get a set of factory 68-72 A body dust shields and cut the mounting points out (with extra metal on upper mount to block heat on upper boot), and look cut my own 5=6 shields down to 1LE shields, weld both together so they work on an A body with gen 6 brakes..
