What all is needed for the conversion? By the looks of the kit it just has calipers and rotors and a couple lines. There has to be more to it than that. You would think that the drums would stick out further than the discs too. The reason I am asking is because I was wanting to do the rear conversion too, except I want C5 brakes all around.

well for camaro rear brakes it is that simple. i did it to my v6. its the backing plate, caliper, rotor, brake line, and ebrake cable.

for C5 brakes the front you need an adapter plate that is quite expensive, as if the parts werent already, then the rear i believe cannot be done, due to the vettes having IRS. however the LS1 rear brakes, whisch are very similar to the vettes rears, are easily swappable.

Did you have to do anything to get the rear discs to fit, like drilling or custom brake lines? What year was the car?

1995 and like i said, no. the drum bake lines can be used with the calipers if you get them with the rubber lines they come with.
