what am I going to need for the LS1 front brakes? calipers, spindels, rotors, lines and wtf else?
That's pretty much it other than pads/rotors. I recall that the hubs were interchangable and all you had to do was bend the original brake hose brackets to make them work. & be sure to check the ball jionts while your in there !

I can't offer much advise on swapping the rear brakes,..... I'd assume it's just a matter of swapping the backing plates (disk to disk). I swapped to a complete LS1 rear when the 4.11's were installed. +1 on the negative feedback about the LS Disk rear internal parking brake !! I have NEVER been able to get mine set correctly after swapping the rear end !!!

:D

My ball joints were like brand new when I put in my shocks and struts in March so thats all set. Thanks Pizza for the parts list, yes the reason I'm asking is because sciff asked what I need off the car. :P

I think you need new E-brake cables too to so the rear, it is completley different then the LT1
