JL8 Rotors : where to find race quality ones today ?

(1/2) > >>

eb911:
Well, as part of my current refresh process on my 1967 ex A-Sedan Camaro, I have an issue with the brakes. The FIA will not accept slotted rotors, nor 2 pieces ones (unless they look exactly the same as original). I have looked for race quality JL8 replacement rotors but could not find any. The best ones are slotted, and the stock replacement ones seem to be all made in Asia and quality is said to be poor (at least for a road race use).

What do the guys in historic Trans-Am use today ?

Any input on how to find good JL8 rotors would be much appreciated.

69Z28-RS:
Are they the same as the corvette rotors of those years?   At least I believe the OTC disk brake (service duty) rear ends ones were....

janobyte:
Did you try Moser Engineering, or Lonestar Caliper Co. ?

janobyte:
If that can not supply what you are looking for, I'm sure they can point you in the right direction. Very knowledgeable ,and they don't deal in junk.

Jon Mello:
There are some guys running in Historic Trans-Am that are running the basic rotors available through Lonestar.
