Difference's in SS and Z28
This may sound really stupid, but what's the difference in Z28 and SS in the LS1 4th gens aside from a hood and spoiler?
Also is there anything different in the 5 years?

Try a search next time. This has been discused a million times. The SS has 17" wheels and better suspension as well as the hood and spoiler. Some SS cars have a Blackwing lid and SlP exhaust from the factory.

Yeah the search is kind of funny sometimes. Here is another thread that backs up what I said https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...z28+differance
On a side note if you are still looking for a car I have a 98 Z28 that Im going to be selling soon.

some differences include:
-98 had a different computer than 99+
-98-00 LS1 had LS1 parts, but 01-02 had LS6 manifold and truck cam
-interior colors were different throughout the years
-exterior colors varied as well
-in 99 or 00 the steering wheel changed
-in 01 the EGR was deleted when they started with the LS6 manifold
the differenced between Z28 and SS vary. the SS as a base form only had a different hood, spoiler, and the addition of a power steering cooler. You could get different options through SLP including bilstein shocks, exhaust and lid.

The base ss has different exhaust and suspension calibrations even before the slp options I believe. I know in 98 they had a 3 inch exhaust on one side only. The additional slp items that are on the sticker are above the ss options added when the car went to slp.
