What difference does it make value wise to the OP if you provide the info to him via PM or openly here? Zero difference to him, but a huge difference to anyone that will ever read this thread.
My opinion is gained from experience. I don't have enough of the latter to argue the former in most instances. If anyone actually wants my opinion on brakes, totally PM me.

After all the conversations above I think I'll try out the ZL1 kit, since some people at some tracks with the 1LE kit still had issues. The temporary issue with the ZL1 kit is low pads variety ( I think it's the same pads as 2016 CTS-V).
For now I have the winter to stew and do lots of bench racing...
Cheers
Good plan! I wonder if the ZL1 calipers are 100% compatible with SS cars int terms of piston size for SS proportions and the ABS tuning (might be a bit different for ZL1 cars maybe). I might be overthinking of course but I would still make sure those would be just fine

Great guy named Kenneth. Always takes care of me.
Pic below show the quote. I think the bolts are not the correct part.
I was checking the number for the rotor but it said „this part does not fit.... “this quote is for the 1LE 6-piston front brakes? Do you have also a quote for the ZL1 front brakes?
