Title: 67-68 Front Disc Calipers
Post by: gbowman on August 24, 2021, 10:45:18 PM

Are the 67-68 calipers the same as the 68-82 Corvette and interchangeable? Thanks.

No, the only interchange for the 67-68 Camaro is the 67-68 Nova.

What are the correct part numbers?

Part numbers are different than casting numbers. Which do you want? For the casting number read THIS (http://www.camaros.org/forum/index.php?topic=2792.msg18035).

I have some calipers that came with a 68 I bought but I think they are for a corvette. Casting #: 5473796 and 5452270.

You have a mixture of parts. The 5452270 (inner caliper) was used on the 1967 through early 1972 Corvette and the 5473796 (outer caliper) was used on the late 1972 through 1982 Corvette. Both are fronts.
