brake rotor UPDATE FOR 69/70
Yes 2000 camaro are gonna work, all the dimensions are right there wth minmal difference, I will be contacting a machine shop to have a set bored out in the center and the bolt pattern changed. I will go back to all of our threads about this and compare the suggested rotors to this and see if any other are this close..

Can you have your machine shop make a template or instructions for the bolt pattern change and the boring instructions so the rest of us can have some made up as well?
This is a big leap if we can get there, many thanks.
As an aside, what brake booster and year of master cylinder are you going with? I like the translucent ones from the 80's/90's, but am unsure what bore for a disc/drum set up would be right.
cheers,

The 96 Chevy rotor is not going to work. There is no rotor that is closer dimensionally than the 2000 camaro. I've looked at many different ones including the later Chevy truck 5x5. The camaro rotor will work with minor machining. Over bore the center hole to the olds hub dimension and add the 5x5 lug pattern between the existing lug pattern and press the lugs back in.
