Default ls1 camaro and corvette

I want to know is the LS1 camaro the same as the ls1 corvette, also when it comes down to the suspension does the corvette also use k-members, a-arms, drop spindles like the camaro does?

Power-wise, they are the same, but the Corvette's LS1 has some minor differences like a drive by wire throttle body, and I think a different PCM.
As far as suspension, they are in no way interchangeable, and very different setups (especially in the rear). The Corvette uses double wishbone suspension front and rear while the Fbody uses upper and lower A-Arms in the front and 3-link solid axle in the rear.
