Is this a non E-Brake caliper?

[chillware]

These are on my truck, supposedly from CPP. I just finished plumbing the brakes and instructions I've found online say that I must adjust the parking brake before moving on. However it appears these rear calipers have no parking brake. Is that right? Am I ok to move ahead and bleed the brakes. Ultimately I really think I need E-Brake on this truck. What are my options, just new calipers? Thanks!

Yes.

An e-brake caliper would usually have a lever of some sort that mechanically applies the piston.

Usually a mechanical (not hydraulic) ebrake is a DOT requirement.

Does the kit come with hardware for a wee drum inside the rotor hat?

I think what your looking for is a 1985 Eldorado Toronado Riviera rear caliper with E brake for that bracket.

This is the mid=90's Z/28 Caliper, you can see the lever on the bottom. I doubt they fit your bracket though.

Sorry for the late reply, thanks for the info! I think I'm on the right track now for new calipers.

A pinion mounted e-brake might be a better option.
Here’s an example.

I was going to use one of those a few y ears back when I was assembling mine. Easy to find for the 9", not so much for the 12 bolt. I have used one for a previous truck (56 with a 9").
