Interestingly enough, the C5 front Calipers have the same piston area as the C6 Z06 ( actually a slight bit more, the benefit you get with the C6 Z06 is a fixed Caliper over the sliding of the C5, the the piston area like I said is very close.
Thanks for the mention of Street Shop and other info. I'll check them out.
