Thanks for previous replies to earlier questions re. your experience of alternative brake pads.
Here is another one for you all, again relating to C3's.
Have any of you guys used aftermarket drilled or slotted discs on your C3's?.
The DigitalCorvette forum has some new links, one of them being 'Brakeworld', they list slotted and drilled Brembo discs for most Vette models including the C3.
I wasn't previously aware that Brembo listed these for early vettes.
I know everyone seems to regard Brembo as being the 'DB's for braking systems but has anyone had experience on a C3?

Oh no! and I have just bought a full set of sports rotors and calipers from VBP!

One of the best mods you can do is to convert your brakes to hydro boost rather than servo. It takes up a lot less room and is more consistent, especially if you are running a cam with a bit of extra lift.

Looked again at brakeworld website-there is no such thing as a Brembo rotor for a C3, they just used the image on the website.
