It is the same thing. Although depending on the year of the Gen3, it could have different lengths head bolts or all the same size.

The bolt holes are the same diameter/pitch. Just make sure it is the ARP tool you are using because a standard cutter will take the "roll" off the threads and weaken them.

I was told for the lq9 that I have to use the shorter ls2 bolts.
