Default 1997 ss/ws6 suspension parts

I recently got some 1997 camaro ss suspension parts I know there is no difference between the ws6/ss springs and shocks +struts compared to z28/ trans am ones unless you ordered the 1LE option but what else is different other than 32 mm front sway bar 17 inch wheels and I am guessing harder bushings in the control arms, panhard bar, and swaybars? Thanks for anyones help!

These images are from the 1996 Supplement manual, but may help answer your question.

Thanks for your help I was right there was a suspension option on the SS just like the firehawk that was called level II came with SLP springs and bilstin shocks and struts, 32 mm front sway bar, harder bushings in the panhard bar and rear lower control arms so I should have stated SS/firehawk suspension parts Thanks

I also have a pamphlet (somewhere) where there was an extrude honed option for the exhaust manifolds. I called them and they said they did it to maybe 100 cars before realizing it was too labor intensive and costly so they stopped. Also was a supposed oil cooler option, but not when I ordered mine.

The pamphlet stated this was an option on the LT1.
