I have found a wrecked 98 ss and the guy is parting it out. My first question is do the ss models have the 12 bolt? if so will it work on my 97 (abs, brakes, shock location, ect) also will all the seats bolt right up? he has leather, I have cloth. and last will the ground effects bolt up to mine? This guy is selling this stuff for DIRTTTTT CHEAP!!!

No factory fbody came with a 12bolt
Rear brakes on both cars are single piston, the front brakes however are 2piston on the LS1 car, while your current brakes are only 1piston--so those would be an upgrade and you might want to search the lt1 forum on what all is involved on the swap.
The seats "should" be a direct swap
I would assume LT1 and LS1 ground effects would be differet, but I am not positive

The best you could hope for is if the rear end had an upgraded posi, or if it it wasa t-56 car it had 3.42 gears

the only differance in the ground fx is going to be the front piece. the other will fit.
