Here's a bunch of pics of my LT1 with both its street setup and drag setup. Stock shocks and rear, nothing was changed that would effect ride height except for the springs. Hopefully theres atleast one that will work for you:

not all cars are the same...especially LT1/LS1's

and pictures can add visual differences depending on light, angle, and slope of ground beneath the cars

I think they all look pretty similar, but as was mentioned, no two cars are alike. Some weigh more, some weigh less. Some have bigger rear axle tubes which make the rear higher. Some have added weight in the rear with bigger stereo's. Some have weigh reduction in the front. Some have aftermarket front lower control which can cause a height change.

And of course there are the things like light, angles, wheel size/offset and tire size that can also make things look different, even if two cars sit exactly the same height. But again, all these pics look pretty consistant to me.

I don't have an LT1 but I'll post up anyway. Stranos, 4/4s and a laundry list of other suspension parts that have nothing to do with the stance of my car!

I know, I'm still on stock wheels/tires.

Sam, did you try CamaroZ28.com? That's where most of the LT1 losers hang out.

Whoa, hadn't checked this thread in a while. To answer the question, I'm actually on a stock 10-bolt. I think I have a few pics on the stock 10-spokes, I'll try hunting them down and post them up.
