ws6 should be 36mm up front and 24 mm in the rear, thats a real nice combo.

i havent heard of 1LE's being bigger.

Yep. According to what I've been able to find out, actually Firebirds had the so-called 1LE bars first, 1986-92. Camaros didn't come around until 1989-92 (some models of both types of cars).

yes the sway bars are the same, but the 1le cars had stiffer springs that the ws6 cars.
