Searching for "1LE" in the Firebird parts catalog, I discover many of the 1LE components were included in other performance or handling packages such as WS6 and FE2 options.
I believe the 1LE transmission mount became the new number for the standard mount.
In third gen F-body cars, 1LE made more of a difference in how the car rode than in the later fourth gen cars.

$5500?!? Wow - Nice deal for you!
So, put the original parts back on, sell the blower (and get half of your investment back), then - after getting it detailed by one of our members here (as there are a couple very good detailers here) - sent it off to Barett-Jackson.
Again, nice find!

Wow, what an awesome car. Formula body with ram air and high rise spoiler! 
Best looking package right there IMO. Didn't even know there was a WS6 1LE....
Super jealous!

OP, very nice and rare car.
I don't think so. A thirdgen 1LE had the same springs as a WS6. The main upgrade on thirdgens was the brakes and trans ratio.
On fourtgen 1LE, 93 had the same springs as a Z28, but 94-99 had stiffer springs. 1LE springs were used on 96-early 00 WS6 and SS, but those had inferior and softer sprung shocks.

That is an awesome find for very little $$$. Enjoy it!

Did the car come w/ the original hatch too? That might put DrEvyl over the edge, LOL.
