LS1 Suspension components compatability

[Kevin T.]

Will all suspension parts from 82-02 Camaro TPI,LT1,LS1 engines work on a 3800. I was looking on ebay earlier and it said 82-02 Camaro LT1,TPI,LS1 but didn't say V6. As for suspension components I'm referring to subframe connectors, lowering springs, pan hard rods, lower control arms etc.

Rear suspension parts are interchangable 82-02 but for front springs/shocks you will want 93-02. Third gens had a different setup.

v8 and v6 springs are different

Thanks all, so subframe connectors, and LCA's should bolt right up?

[Little G]

yes

if you get v8 springs up front wont your car be higher off of the ground rather than if you get v6 springs?

I would like to know this too. I'm scraping my turbo pipes everywhere and I want to raise the front end of the car up a bit so it wont scrape as much.

Slightly, only ¼ - ½ inch or so. Depends on the spring rate.

Strut bar brace is different from normal Z28, unless its a universal one which it will say.
