To the OP, look at the casting # on the front corner of the head. If it says 243 or 799, it's an LS6 head. Anything else, is not.

No, it's not possible. This is inaccurate information that does not need to be spread on the internet worse than it already is. This topic has been beat to death. Some 02 cars came with the LS6 block ONLY. Absolutely NONE of them came with 243 heads or an LS6 cam. PERIOD.

The 243 casting number...it's right there at the front of the head on the driver's side. If its not a 243, then its not an LS6 head. Called a guy out at car meet back when the LS6 first came out, who was bragging to all the Mustang guys that he dropped an LS6 in his SS. Asked him if a shop did it, because they ripped him off then, as he had 241 heads on his car. He left shortly after that.
