Default F-Body brake upgrade

Alright people i found a pretty good deal on some F-Body calipers, brackets, lines and pretty much everything i need. Who has a list of everything i need or just some stuff i need to know before doing the upgrade. My car is due for a brake job so i figured why not. Any help would be appreciated

The car is a 98 and pretty sure the Camaro's are all the same from 98-02, or does it have to be a 2000-2002?

If I'm not mistaking the braclet will need to be drilled so the bolts fit through the f-body bracket (monte bolts are a m14 and f-body bolts are a m12.

Some reading material I found for you

the top pad is stock 2005 monte carlo SS , Bottom pad is stock 2002 Camaro.. I flipped the bracket at the steel line it gave me a little more hose going to the caliper..

Jerry I assume this will also work for the 7th gen? Those calipers look much bigger than our two Pistons in front, does the back also swap out as well?
