Default Another differential question

Hey,
well today i was arguing with a friend that there isn't any major differences between the 98-02 camaro & firebird.
-
he stated that the rear disc brakes won't fit.
i stated they would.
he also stated that the front/rear sway bars won't fit?
i say they do?
to make it easier i said w/e is in a camaro fits a firebird and the opposite is true
-
so im just wondering is there any differential differences between them? excluding the ratio.
will the same disc brakes fit or not?
where am i wrong? in "everything fits for both".
thanks.

Most things should be interchangeable.

the body should be changeable too, e.g. (doors,trunk,side mirrors,hood)
i'm completely unsure about the (front & rear) +fenders though due to it being way different.

Thanks.

All the parts you have listed above are interchangeable between Camaros and Firebirds in those model years.

Things like sway bars and gear ratios were dependant on trim level/options, but again these same parts were interchangeable and could be had on either car depending on options selected.
