For many years, tire and wheel sizes were adjusted in the search for optimum balance, with 10" wide front wheels and 12" wide rears providing the best combination. F41 front springs and a factory 5-leaf "Daytona" rear spring with 15/16" front stabilizer bar and 5/8" rear bar also worked best. The 5/8" wheel studs were added after nearly losing a left rear wheel to broken factory 7/16" units
The Vette Products suspension pieces replaced the autocross combination in the mid 70s, which smoothed out the ride and eliminated a lot of weight in the process.
Mounting the Camaro fuel tank under the frame provided two clear benefits: It cleaned up the appearance of the rear deck, and it moved something on the order of 126 pounds of fuel 12" lower in the chassis for a lower center of gravity
