Product details
For a 1965–1982 Chevrolet Corvette C2/C3 retaining its original front hubs, this Wilwood package supplies red Superlite 6R calipers and 13.06-inch GT slotted rotors. Each caliper uses six differential-bore pistons. BP-20 pads work against the 1.25-inch-wide Spec-37 friction rings, which are secured to separate hats rather than supplied as replacement hubs. Wilwood Engineering was founded by Bill Wood in 1977 and is based in Camarillo, California. The company designs and manufactures disc brake systems and components, including calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings, and brake lines for motorsport, street-performance, and specialized applications.
