    not really, rotors are almost the same size and there both single piston. Go with some Corvette brakes, there larger and twin piston. You can get a front conversion kit for like $600. the rear really dont matter if you have rear disks stock, the front stops 70% of the car.

        For some reason I was thinking the LS1s are dual pistons.
