lt1 sportlines...

[lookout4theyeti]

Background- I have a 2000 v6 camaro with eibach prokit springs, and kyb agx shocks. I've been wanting to lower it more, and not very concerned with ride quality.

I found a really good deal on a set of lt1 eibach sportline springs. Now the seller told me that it won't drop me anymore than my prokit does, because his are for the lt1. However, I see many posts of people with v6's running v8 sportlines, and it still looks like the 2" drop, however I'm not sure if these are the lt1 or ls1 sportlines I see v6 guys running. Would it be worth it for me to buy the lt1 sportlines? or will it really not lower me anymore than my v6 prokit?

This is what eibach says on their site
ls1 sportlines

lt1 sportlines

The springs for the lt1 drop the car more than the ls1 springs, so its my assumption that they would still lower my car more than my prokit...

Sorry, hope this wasn't too confusing

The V8 engine have more wight! So if you put the V8 springs in a V6 car, it is a small less drop in high! But the weight is only slightly differnt between the iron V6 and the aluminuim LS1. Near the same!

Re: lt1 sportlines...

Sorry about the links... Basically what they are is showing the ls1 vs. lt1 sportline comparison.

This is how much eibach states them lowering

LS1 LT1
1.6" 1.8"

Thats why I figured that the lt1 springs might drop me enough to make it worth it over my current prokit

I just went to Suspension Technologies and got the 430# front and 160# rear springs. Dropped my car a little more than the Eibachs, but a whole lot cheaper. I feel the rear is too soft and bottoms out, so I am going to double the spring rate and and see how it goes.
