I'm in a C5 now, but I found this interesting. If it bolts directly to a C5 spindle, it should bolt to a F Body with track brackets.
They accept the 7416 pad shape. These are directed at the "Hot Rod" crowd who run C5 suspensions, but should be better than a C5 stock caliper. Sam Strano sells this setup. http://www.stranoparts.com/partdetails.php...&ModelID=11 |

I've wondered in the past if the aftermarket brake systems for the C5/C6 would mount to a 4th gen with the trackbrackets. I always drool over the AP kits for the Vette's, such as this one:

Pretty easy really. Love the brakes and love the price of the 7420 pads |
