They are probibly alittle more than double the stock rotor weight. Crossdrilling helps slightly but not much. Adds to the rotational mass and unsprung weight, but its a good tradeoff for not experiencing brake fade with high hp engines. Can you give me actual lbs?? Im trying to get a better picture...

I just got it for $235 I think is not bad. The think is I will spend 6 days working and most of the time will be riding the van. Buying another car for just barely use and pay $400 + insurance seems to me a bad idea. Anyway I have the Fiero for that pourpouse. Since now Im a family man i have to put...

yea they are the contractors for Brighthouse I believe in the Orlando area. Brighthouse is actually a good company to work for, but the pay is mediocre. You will make a ton more working as a contractor. Only drawback is no benefits like medical and dental and such, but you could of course always ge...

It came with it from factory. Was an option. Are you pulling my chain? I thought the 4.3 Vortec was the *only* option. I'm not calling BS, but I sure would like to see pics. Maybe an RPO code. I did some research and aparently the only option is the v6. This safari was owned by Disney and I really ...

I drive a regular C6 and they are awesome cars. The 2nd gear goes all way to 90! The suspension is firm but sutile and comfy. I want to gear a tranny for my fiero that behave close to that. As power increase gears are more important to exploit the potential of the engine.
