Wilwood 140-16531 DPC56 Rear Brake Kit (Race)
DPC56 Rear Brake and Rotor Kits offer measurable brake performance improvements for racers and enthusiasts running the OE-diameter 12.00in rear rotor. The kit includes DPC56 calipers and high-performance BP-40 pad compound. Two-piece rotor-and-hat assemblies provide high-temperature durability for the track. DPC56 calipers add high-tech styling and the positive response and balanced pad loading of a fixed-mount, four-piston caliper. The DPC56 is a direct bolt-on replacement for the OE caliper on all C5 (1997-2004) and all base-model C6 (2005-2013) Corvettes running 12.00in diameter rear rotors — the calipers attach directly to the factory spindle without brackets or adapters and accept all OE banjo-bolt style brake hoses.
