Lone Star is BY FAR the highest-volume rebuilder/stainless sleever of '65-'82 Corvette calipers, which are the same castings as '67-'68 Camaros.

I believe White Post Restorations also does. I can vouch for their lifetime warranty. They did a corvette master for me decades ago and stood behind it. Save your receipt.

There are three that are always highly recommended. In no particular order:

Lone Star
White Post
Vette Brakes

All three give a lifetime warranty to their rebuilds, but while Lone Star and Vette Brakes both use stainless sleeves, White Post uses brass.

I had Vette Brakes rebuild and sleeve the calipers on my 67 back in 1993 and they still work fine today.
