Ls1 and LS6 blocks are Identical except for a slightly different cooling passage and the PCV/EGR system....everything else is the same on the Short BLOCK....

No , the most biggest difference is the buterfly shape in the back of the ls6 intake which is related to oil and heat issues . However , this is weakness point in the LS6 blocks , the ls6 probabltey of damage is more closer.
