    2 to 3"!!!, wow, why? I have z28 springs on mine, it raised it about 1.5 inches, after a few months i think they broke in, and now im guessing its about 1.25 higher then stock. the v6 struts are the same as the v8, theres no diffrents. You do know you will have to put air shocks on the rear to compensate. Look here..http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2245261/6 my car is a little bit lower now then it is in the pics since they broke in. And be sure to get an alliment, because with the stronger springs the tires will be riding on their sides.

            YES, both v8s and v6s use the same struts.
