does LS6 valley cover fit on 06 LQ9 with out block clearancing? I have the ls6 valley cover from my old motor and remember that the 00 ls1block had to be clearance to get it to fit. I want to know if it will fit on my 06' LQ9 motor before I take the stock valley cover off. I would rather not take it appart and have to get a new gasket if it isn't going to fit with out grinding the block.
Thanks!
Thanks!

on the 5.7 motor I have, I had to grind a part of the block that was interfering with the baffle in the cover. There were no issues on the outside of the motor. There was a rib inside, under the cover.
