shocks/springs are same as Z28. Wheels/tires will play a role in the handling also due to shorter sidewall. IIRC though the base SSs got larger front sway bars. I don't remember if the back did. I could be completely wrong though, but I think I read that the SSs got a larger front bar...

See here - well , below , in the post body .

linky

I did no read the whole thing, but I think the later models - like '00 & up - had a less stiff suspension, unless the upgrades were purchased thru SLP.

RPO code WU8 on the drivers door sticker. If it ain't there, it wasn't born as a SS.

Did all SS camaros have a dash plaque that said "Camaro SS" or was that something that the dealers would put on some. I'm asking because I see a few SS cars on ebay that have it, but some don't.
