5 x 4 3/4 rotors conversion

Does anyone make or know of a factory 5 x 4 3/4 rotor that will bolt on to a 72 stock spindle? Thanks in advance!

Pretty sure of that, too...the B body bearings and rotors cross over to the C10 spindle ....years ago, I had a set of rotors redrilled before I learned about this.

I think I did some research years ago and found that the Early G10 vans will work.

Isn't a G10 rotor 1" wide like a Camaro rotor ?
