Both should be good for weight transfer, but as stated in other posts, sometimes V6 springs aren't good, because the car doesn't need to come that far down in the rear V6 springs will allow. I have also read that 98+ springs are all the same between V6 and Z28's.

Thats right, 98+ V6 springs are the same rate as V8 springs.
93-97 are a little softer. (hopefully you got these atleast)
93-97 v6 95.4 lbs/in.
93-97 V8 110 lbs/in.
98-02 v6 114 lbs/in.
98-02 v6 114 lbs/in.

Back in early 2000, I did !front swaybar and 1995 V6 springs in back.
I went from 1.65 to 1.57, and hooked a little better on mosts passes vs other cars with stock v8 springs out back.
Once we were able to get drag shocks the V6 springs added no value.
