Yeah definitely not a Z06 suspension. The rear suspension on Corvettes and Camaros are completely different, as was said earlier. I don't know about the front suspension.

Ok now for the real question. How much would it cost to put a zo6 suspention on an F-body? and would it be worth it. probably not other options are cheaper.

Way too much if you have to ask. There is a guy on here that put C4 suspension in his firebird. It was sposed to be badass.
