Default Z06 shocks

I'm thinking about putting the C6Z06 shocks on my C5 coupe, not the Z06. I already have the Z06 sways on now. Gm Partshouse has them and they say they fit the C5 without any modifications. Has anyone had any issues using them on a C5 as far as fit? Thanks.

Great addition to the sways, made a nice handling improvement to mine, although the left front shock was completely shot
