I will. My buddy is gonna fab brackets for me. I think the vette calipers will look cool and I've never seen it done. Obviously I can't use the vette rotors. I'm working on finding rotors now.

If 2wd SSBC sell big ones and even a four piston caliper. For a pretty penny.

I have heard of the s10 guys taking the Corvette calipers or the CTS-v cadillac callipers and making it work for there trucks.
They would take there hats and cut the disc part off of them. Install longer studds then put the C06 vette rotors over the cut down hat. Then all you have to make is brackets that will allow the bolt hole line up.
It should work on our trucks. I know that the bolt pattern is 5x 4.53, our 5 lug tahoes are 5 on 5. So we should be able to redrill the bolt hole pattern. I think you would still have to update your master cylinder to add the more pressure.

There are PLENTY of after market 2 piece hat and rotor combos that will fit a 5x5, you just gotta search around.
What the S10 guys are doing the second gen Camaro guys have been doing for a while now. They normally split a third gen hat/rotor/hub and get the two piece like I described. We use the turd gen stuff due to it having a bigger bearing.
I was going to do this at one time but the 2500 calipers and master are plenty for me for now.
