Search is your friend.

LS6 intake = ALL 2001-2002 f-body cars.

Injectors?

98, 2001-2002 = 28lb

99-2000 = 26lb

Pulley's are all the same and all stock.

WS6 is hood, power steering cooler, bigger front sway bar (32mm), and slightly better cat-back.

Now how about trying a search next time?

Peace,
Craig.

I'm pretty sure PS cooler came standard on all LS1 f-bods sometime in the '01-'02 years. Also, prior to Nov '00, WS6 suspension upgrades included more than just a larger front sway bar. I don't remember all the details (need to search this one), but better shocks, different springs and bushings were included over non-WS6 cars. Also, don't forget the 17" rims / tires, raised airbox and badge. Also, if it's an A4 car, WS6s had a "mandatory option" 3.23 rear gear.

No, not all 01-02 cars came with ps cooler. Hell my 2001 T/A does not have one, so I sure as hell wish you were right there.

The suspension is 100% same as T/A, before 2000? Not 100% sure there but I bet its again...nothing special. I'm not sure about the bushings, but a/c decrap-o's and stock springs, same as any T/A or Z28. Now that I think about it I really doubt they had any bushings worth a crap, my Bilstein optioned SS with 35mm/21mm sway bars had plain old rubber bushings. No poly there.
SLP Firehawks & SS's had all the suspension options, not ASC.

Forgot about 17" wheels, lower raised air-box and 3.23's for A4 cars. You're right there.

Peace,
Craig.

For 2002 you could get the 12 bolt rear with 373s. Only a few got this, code GGL03

LMAO!!! ...sorry buddy not happening. Even the Berger / GMMG 427's did not come with a 12-bolt.

Codes are 3 digit codes, not 5 (i.e. GU5, WS6, Y2Y, Z28.....etc).

Peace,
Craig.

Never claimed they were polys, just different. Not all "plain old rubber" bushings are created equal. Different durometer rubber had different PNs but same physical dimensions and appearance. How did you think they made Buicks feel different from Pontiacs? Isn't just sways, shocks and springs.

Whoa thats a whole different ball game there, we're talking about WS6 vs T/A.

As far as I've know and seen there was zero difference between the WS6 and T/A bushings. The front sway bar is bigger like I already mentioned, but the shocks, springs, etc....are all the same as T/A. Including ride height.

Peace,
Craig.

I dunno about other years, but I know my '98 WS6 has different suspension bushings than my '98 Formula does. They used the 1LE suspension parts on '98 WS6s.

Yep, that's what I was saying, after Nov '00, the WS6 suspension package was watered-down. '98 thru 11/00 = much more different.

Although, I had thought there was one or two items that were different between '98 WS6 and '98 1LEs (which required WS6 option too). I'm thinking it was a transmission mount or something. I do know 1LE was available only on HT Formulas and A4 was not available w/ 1LE (at least in '98, not positive in '99-'00). There may have been other option restrictions on 1LEs too, power windows / leather seats may not have been avail.
