I installed base model C6 dual piston calipers up front using the zq8 spindle and a bracket to adapt the abutment bracket to the spindle
I used 18in wheels to clear the 13in rotors:

So I have not seen your car on Craigslist Detroit in a while so does this mean you decided to keep it and continue upgrading it?

It says zq8 not z28. The spindle you would need is a 98-05 s-10 blazer 2wd spindle. All the info is in here viewtopic.php?f=14&t=35747#.Uk7kZCq9KSM

You can get them from here http://www.kore3.com/index.php. He sells the bracket to use on the s-10 spindle not the stock g body spindle.
