Looking forward to your progress. My Esky will match yours in this regard. I have to stop by Ray's shop (original designer of the bracket) to discuss this and a bunch of other mods for my truck. He just opened a shop locally 3mo ago.

Ray is a super nice guy. Had many conversations with him during my z06 swap.

Yeah I heard he opened a new one. Last step I need to do is just get the rotors, caliper pins,banjo bolts and crushed washers.

Those are the same as the CTS-V and they will not work with the brackets. The mounting holes are different.

Yeah prob could. Anything is possible. You would just have to see what works. No one has done that yet so not sure what rotors would need to be used and so on. But if someone has the time and money it is possible.
