Default Can an '02 Camaro LS1 long block bolt into '02 Trans Am

Sorry for the nub question.

I'm selling a long block on e-bay from a '02 Camaro. The heads on the Camaro long block are 241 casting number with a surplus LS6 block from the factory. A guy with an 02 Trans Am wants to know if my LS1 can bolt into his Trans Am without major compatibility issues.

In other words, Is there a difference in the bolt patterns of the 2002 Camaro LS1 vs. a 2002 Trans Am LS1? My long block assembly comes with a harmonic balancer, valve covers and a T56 flywheel. Are these compatible too? I remember something about a middle bolt in the valve covers not being compatible.?.?.?

Thank you. Sorry I just don't know anything about Trans Ams.

This may need to be deleted and reposted in external engines. I didn't know if the valve covers were considered external or internal. I figured I'd have better luck with the compatibility issues of the heads with the people who frequent the Internal Engine section.

Yes it will. As long as your buddies car is also a M6(six-speed) then there really isnt an issue.
