96 SS Series I and Series II suspension?
 

I was trying to read the SCCA SOLO II rulebook about classes. I found one notation where one of the factors in determining the class the car would run in was whether the 96 - 02 Camaro SS came equipped with Series I or Series II suspension. I am unaware of what this is. Does anyone know what is included in these packages?

I believe this should be the correct information:

Level I
- 35 mm front sway bar
- 21 mm rear sway bar
- 3/4" drop springs
- front spring rate: 223-448lbs/in
- rear spring rate: 97-136 lbs/in

Level II
- 32mm front sway bar
- stock rear sway bar
- 1/2" drop springs
- front spring rate 300-450lbs/in
- rear spring rate 115-185 lbs/in

All 96-97 SS's came with Level I unless they were optioned with the level II or level III suspension package. If you have it, it should be on the option sticker on your door. Hope this helps.

Sorry I didn't get back sooner. I really appreciate the info. I know this car is lower than a normal Camaro. Obviously, a lot of people swap springs so that isn't a big indicator. But I do know that the front sway bar is 32 mm. Maybe mine is a series III. Is there any way to identify the springs? I took it out to it's first autocross last weekend. I am sure of one thing. It corners much flatter and quicker than my 97 Z4C Camaro Z28. My 97 felt like a barge by comparison. And I know the shocks on the 96 SS are way beyond needing to be replaced. Interesting. Any idea what the option code would be? Thanks.
