I have a 67 camaro and there are a pair of multi-leaf springs from a 78 camaro for sale on ebay. Who out here can tell me what cars and years bolt right up to the 67 camaro. I believe the 67-81 camaros are all interchangeable but want to know for sure. I understand some novas and chevy II's as well but not sure on the years. Thanks again.

67-69 Camaro and Firebirds only. 2nd generation Camaro are not the same (70-81). 68-74 Novas and their sister cars (apollo, ventura , and Omega) leaf springs are the same as 1st gen's.

Thank you, you're referring to the firebird when you say sister car, right.

Thanks Paul for clarifying. I didn't get back on-line until now. I reedited my post so it was a little easier to understand. :)

If I get those JCW 3-leaf spring setup what else do I need to install. The rear I will be putting in is an 8.5 10 bolt nova rear w/ multi-leaf perches. Is the shackle the same and can I just pop the bushing out of the mono leaf I currently have or do Ineed different ones. Do I need any shims? Thanks all.

They should come w/ front rubber bushings in them so if you want, get poli mono leaf stuff and you will have to trim the center pad lips off b/c they are a 1/4" wider than mono's.
