I seen pics the other day in the f/s section of a cuy with C6 seats in his frc. I believe he said the c6 seat bolts up to the c5 seat track.

Wheels - no, seats - yes, Forum member 99FewterC5 (Al) has C6 seats in his C5 and they look very nice. I think he had to do a little adjustment on the tracks.

I couldn't come up with a straight answer, are the leaf springs the same between a C-5 and C-6? I balked at buying a set of C-6 Z-51 springs cheap because I wasn't sure they would fit and function properly. The owner, of course, insisted they would. My gut said, it would be cheaper for GM to retain the spring size the same, anyone know for sure?

Has anyone determined if the MN6 and differential are identical between the C6 and C5? I think they are but I haven't heard for sure. Also, with the LS2 and now the LS3 putting out significantly more hp/tq than the stock LS1....what has been beefed up? I can see lots of members with modded Ls1's wanting the improved MN6 and/or differential assuming they are swappable. Output shafts, differentials, and transmissions would be great to swap if they were interchangable (and improved on the C6).
