Average cost for an LS1 brake upgrade?
A question for those that have done the LS1 brake upgrade front/rear, what was the cost for you to do it?
Price for parts from a junkyard/parts store/dealer.
Price to have it installed if not done by yourself.
Price for new rotors and pads.
Thanks

Heres what I paid:
$125 for the brake assemblies
$50 for stock replacement pads
~$50 for stock replacement rotors
$10 for fluid to bleed the lines
$2 for new copper washers to attatch brake lines
If you can turn a wrench you can install these brakes. Installation is pretty strait foward. The hardest part was probably knocking the old spindle out if its siezed to the control arm.

Same here. But the Ebay set I got had great pads and the rotors had minimal rust. I machined the rotors for $18 and used the original pads until I could afford the slotted rotors and Hawk pads. If you have tools and the skills to install the mods I see in your sig, you can do it.
