Not sure about the axle swap, but it seems reasonable though to upgrade brakes and chassis. But JMO.
They are and they aren't. There is no V6 performance package, but you can get the parts. They offer the 1LE suspension bits (including the strut tower brace), plus the SS brakes through Chevrolet Performance (or if you really feel like it, you can get the Z/28 suspension bits and ZL1 brakes). You'll have to install them yourself, or pay someone to do it for you. And you'll have a bunch of spares left over (and I doubt that V6 Camaro suspension parts are going to be too easy to sell). But GM will sell you most of the parts to make yourself a V6 1LE, if you so choose. Only things that seem to be missing are the wheels/tires and a shorter gearing option.

Its not cheap at over 7 grand in parts to make yourself a V6 1LE (and you don't even get the black wheels with high performance rubber) but you can do it.
