universal adjustable springs & ss header? Base model

So I was browsing around Craigslist for some new parts & I came across a guy selling some random parts

These unknown "adjustable lowering springs" apparently eBay
... We're gonna pretend that there's a picture of grey springs and adjustable bolts right here because I can't upload pictures from my phone...

He claims they're universal per-car and that they'll fit a cobalt,
Issue 1: never heard of universal springs.
Issue 2: never heard of adjustable springs (not full coilovers)

He's also selling a header from an ss. I guess this is why I put this in 2.2 tech. Will I see an difference if I switch out mine for the ss header, and will it bolt right together or are the gaskets different from the block & from the downpipe?

I don't have many mods, just a Gmpp intake & a ss Catback

Well I have heard of ss header swaps just don't know the details on it.
I thought anything adjustable was always used from the strut and shock towers but wasn't sure if I was missing some magical part from Ricerboii Land. It seemed unrealistic so I thought I'd come to the people I'd trust the most for confirmation lol

All joking aside is there any difference in the ss header and 2.2?
