I've got a bunch of Camaro 530 / 533 calipers around and will test fit these - not sure I have a new offshore AutoZone or Kragen set, but I could go pick up a set and compare... might be worthwhile to investigate... might take me a couple of days, but stay tuned.

Sorry for the delay Tony, forgot all about this.


I did go and dig up an original low mile pair of Delco pads and just compared them. The gold aftermarket ones I have on hand right now are the exact same size as far as the backing plate the pad is riveted to. See photo directly below.


Hope this helps.
