Product details
Black Superlite calipers use BP-10 pads against drilled-and-slotted Spec-37 rings in this front F-body conversion. Separate aluminum hats and hubs, bearing parts and the hose kit are provided for the specific original-spindle layout. The manufacturer, Wilwood Engineering, was founded by Bill Wood in 1977 and is based in Camarillo, California. It designs and manufactures disc systems and component parts across motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications, including calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and lines. Those individual parts must be selected in the context of the complete brake system.

Fitment & Compatibility
Confirm the original front-brake/spindle type using the exact applications below. DS1142 calls for substantial machining of standard spindles, while the 1LE performance option needs no such changes. Check the outward wheel-hub shift and 5 x 4.75 pattern before comparing full 18-inch wheel clearance.
Listed model families are Camaro, Firebird; the individual year and brake/spindle conditions remain decisive. Use the fitment table below to confirm year, model, trim and brake or suspension options.
PMB Performance has over 20 years of experience with parts and fitment details. Contact us with the original vehicle specification and any changes to its braking or suspension system.
