Yes all are interchangeable.
Depending on which "SS" shock you mean, it might be better or it might be the same... The SLP Bilsteins are not better than deCarbons btw [img]smile.gif[/img]2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

Correct if the firehawk is not equipped with the overpriced-for-what-its-worth bilstein/eibach package from SLP (known as the level 1 suspension you can find on their website).
On older firehawks/ss's this was not true (late 3rd gen for example) but on modern ones they run the same suspension as the car they were derived from.
This is why I call modern SS's Z28/SS's. And many times I'll refer to a firehawk as either a WS6 Hawk or a T/A Hawk - since the WS6s have slightly different suspension setups.
