Do 1LE Suspension packages come with Shocks?

I'm just curious if there's such a thing as 1LE shocks?
If so, how do they compare to the Bilstein HD?
Oh, part number of the shocks if any.
I'm just looking for a good set of shocks to replace my old-tired regular Bilsteins. I'm trying to stay away from adjustable stuff, if I can help it. Any recommendation?
A little info if it might help. I'll be getting a BMR tubular K-member, GW Upper Control Arm, and 1LE Lower Control Arm (front both)
Thx-Goose

It depends on the year. From '88-'95, GM used specially valved DeCarbon shocks. From '96-'99, GM used off the shelf Koni DA shocks for 1LE's. In '01-''02, SLP also used Koni DA's. None of these are available from GM anymore. Well the part numbers still exist, but you will get base DeCarbon's if you order shocks for a '98 1LE.

I had the 1LE DeCarbon's with Eibach Sportline springs. They just didn't have enough control.
