Product Description:
1982–1992 Camaro & Firebird Big Brake Upgrade Kit – LS1 2-Piston Calipers, 11.9" Rotors
Upgrade your 1982–1992 Camaro or Firebird with our LS1 Big Brake Upgrade Kit featuring the Hawks Motorsports front spindle system. This kit brings modern stopping power to your third-gen F-body by combining our spindle and caliper bracket assembly with proven 1998–2002 Camaro SS dual-piston brake calipers and 11.92" rotors.
Unlike other conversions, this system is designed to be truly bolt-on when paired with C6 or C7 Corvette front hubs. These hubs share the same 70.6mm hub pilot, 5x120.65mm bolt pattern, and M12 wheel studs as your stock third-gen — making installation simple, precise, and free of guesswork. Whether you choose to supply your own calipers and rotors or purchase them directly from Hawks Motorsports, this package guarantees proper fitment and compatibility when using our supplied components.
Ideal for street-driven cars, autocross builds, or budget-minded performance upgrades, the LS1 kit offers a great balance of cost, performance, and ease of installation.
