"- The only way to tell 100% if you are buying an ls6 intake, especially used is to ask for pics of the bottom. The vette LS1 intake does not have an EGR provision so its easy to pass that off as an LS6 if you are none the wiser. The difference between the LS1 and LS6 intakes can be see here; the ls1 intake is on the left and the ls6 is on the right."

*Note: Must order GM Part#: 12578838 (Coolant pipe) & 2 - 12563325 (Coolant plugs) to re-route coolant passages for LS6 intake. These are listed for $28.36 on gmpartsdirect.com.
However, SDPC states: "You will need a new air bleed pipe (12568478) and 2 plugs (12563325) to convert a '97-'00 LS1 to the new LS6 intake."
