Default Eibach Pro Kit?

I have a 97 Z28 and i am thinking about putting an eibach pro kit on it. I would like to see what this looks like on the lt1's before i go out and spend the money. I know they look amazing on the ls1's but i didn't know if they would look any different on the lt1 so please post any pics of lt1 camaros with the eibach pro kit. All pics help!

^^Well Eibach prokit has different part numbers for 93-97 and 98-02, so they might be different

I think the spring rate or compression or something is different for the front springs (different motor weight so it makes sense) I do however have an LT1 kit on my SS and have no problems at all. The front tucks nice and the rear is great.

Yea, you can put the LS1 springs on an LT1 but I believe it will sit a little lower...

My biggest fear is that i am going to spend the money and then it isn't going to fit the way i want it to and something is going to go wrong.

Generally speaking, I think that even after you get them in they'll settle down another quarter inch or so...at least mine did and I've read others that have had
the same outcome.
