Default Rear brakes?

My rearend is using LT1 car calipers. Can someone tell me how the brake lines go?

My factory lines go: Single line from master to the rear, goes into a distribution block and then to both calipers. Are the LT1 cars the same? I know these use rubber lines do they go all the way to the block? Any chance someone can measure?

Just trying to get a few things sorted out before I buy anything.

**edit**

After searching around a bit I see that the hoses come off the calipers and go into a little bracket where it meets a hard line correct? From there they go to the dist. block?

the edit is correct. and as long as you have a mounting stud on the rear end for the brake hose then your good!

Yeah I do... I saved em when I took them off saying " I got a feeling I should keep these"

So they do go into a T block right before the rearend though?

Yup !!!

Traction control cars got 2 independent channels, but regular ABS got just a "T" junction block ...

Ok well I'm trying to pick out my lines and I cant figure out what to do.

I found these, says right rear center but they have a caliper end? : http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...S_716099850___

And then theres these, looks like they go caliper to the little brackets: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...S_716052887___

What do I get? I'm thinking 2nd ones?
