as long as you get the right offset you wont need any kind of an adapter, fbodies and vette's have the same bolt pattern. Also, if you really want to do C6 Z06 front brakes, I believe you need at least a 18" wheel. For ls1 brake upgrade or for C5 brakes you can use 17's.

Unless going for some insane show car look, the C5 brakes are a lot more practical.
