So i just did the LS1 front brake swap. Looking to sell my LT1 stuff. These pads and rotors have about 7,000 miles on them. The pads have plenty of life left in them. There not glazed or anything. They worked ok. They were nice and quiet, no squeeking. The pictures dont make them look pretty but whatever there brakes.......

The rotors are made by power slot. They are obviously slotted and have a coating to prevent them from rusting. Its still holding up great. They still stop very smooth and are not warped. The surface is nice and smooth. not grooved or anything

I am curious, what is better about LS1 brakes vs. LT1 brakes? Just bigger?

LT1 brakes have only one piston, LS have two.

Also with LS1 brakes, you can upgrade to say 4-piston CTS-V calipers and not have to change a bracket or knuckle.

yup exactly what Ben said. The caliper has two pistons. Also the rotor i believe is about 1/2in bigger. Better clamping force and just overall better setup for heavy ass f-bodies.



LT1 compared to the LS1 caliper
