383Z4ME

Searching the Bilstein catalog by either '94 or '98 Camaro Z28 I could only find them listed as the SLP model and SLP sells them with lowering springs from Eibach. It seems likely that the combination was intended to work together.

Also not right.. While Eibach makes the SLP springs, they are not in fact the *SAME* as the Eibach Pro-kits or Sportlines. For that matter those aren't even the same part numbers between LT1 and LS1 cars.

I know but they are a "lowering" spring, 1" according to the SLP catalog, which is what someone said the Bilstein catalog specifically warned against. There is a difference between working and optimum, I'll agree.

Uh...ok.

Start here. Just read the top of the page, you don't even have to look for it. This is from Bilstien's website.

Now, with that said. SLP has their shocks revalved (well, the fronts are) to their specs and their lowering springs don't really lower the front of the car more than 1/4" (based on the last car I installed them on). The rear drops a bit more.... But, as I said, they won't explode.....it's just not ideal and it's still probably better than the decarbons, just not enough for the money in my opinion.

So, you guys can think what you want and as I said, it can work somewhat (and the world won't end), but in fact, the manufacturer recommends against it (I wasn't lying about that).
