Will LT1 suspension springs work on LS1 cars? I've got a set of Eibach Pro Kits for an LT1, but I have looked several places and the part #'s are the same for each car and/or the description will say, "93 and up".

Checked with Eibach and they say that the springs have different rates , because of the engine/car weight.
As far as them fitting on the perches, I dont see that bieng the problem.The problem you may run into is too low, not low at all, rides too stiff or bouncey.

Then again if it was me and I already had em...I would install the springs and do my own testing.If it didnt work then just replace them with the factory ones.This way your only out some labor if it dont work.

Me and my gf's 98 T/A has LG springs. It was a little too low in the back, so I put the 1" dropped Hotchkis springs out of my 95 Z28 in the back instead. They worked great.
