If so, I'm wondering about about changes to accommodate suspension geometry (bump steer) for the dropped ride height. Or, too much to hope for I suppo$e, weight reduction (a forged piece).

Be interesting as well to see the prices of the DSSV dampers when they come out... :-)
Are you just wanting to see the price of the DSSV dampers? I don't think you will be able to install them, just for the fact that they will be electronically run by the car. Only the 2nd production car to ever come equipped with them other than the Aston Martin.

The knuckle is #31 in this pic

I'm guessing GM lists a different part number for the rear knuckles is because they will come with different bushings installed from any other Camaro currently offered.
