Fitment Information

The EBC GD Rotors are specifically designed for the front of the Chevrolet Corvette models from 1984 to 1987 equipped with the 5.7L V8 engine. It's essential to note that if you upgrade the front pads, the same upgrade should be applied to the rear for balanced performance. The Thermic black coating does not need to be removed prior to installation and will wear off in the pad swept area after the first few stops.
