More info:
C5 Corvette: PBR twin 40.5mm piston floating front calipers, Ø325mm x 32mm front rotors. Requires Ø17" wheels minimum.
C6 Corvette: PBR twin 40.5mm piston floating front calipers, Ø325mm x 32mm front rotors. Caliper is ~25% more rigid due to additional material (.16 lb) across the bridge of the caliper, however wheel fitment is the same as with the C5(Z06) calipers. The C6 front calipers do not use an anti-rattle spring. Requires Ø17" wheels minimum.
Looks like the C6's will work, look a bit better without the ridges, are stiffer and are only $35 more a set

After doing some quick research, it looks like the C6 calipers are the same bolt pattern, almost same design but a bit stiffer from what some are saying.
This also brings up the question if the the C6 Z06 6-piston monoblocks use the same bolt pattern. It looks like some places do sell them as "upgrades" to the normal C6 calipers so I would imagine yes.

btw, great work nfs for getting all this sorted!!
