when did the owner buy the car off the previous owner?? If Im correct, I dont think that you could get an LS2 until the end of 05 unless you got one off of a vette or gto wreck.
Look at the throttle body size for one. Man Im trying to think what else you could look for.
I guess your going to have to crawl under the car and look for serial numbers and post them up here and see if we (tech) can match some numbers. Take a pic of it if you can. I would love to see it.

Well i went ahead and bought the car, to me it looks an ls1 but beign told it had an ls2 out of a wrecked gto after the accident rebuilt title but never looks like its had an engine swap. But for the price i couldnt even let a t/a with an ls1 go to waste 98 ta 99k got it for $4,800 with shipping i needed a car quick anyways and i plan on driving it till the wheels fall off anyways.All the panels are lined up extremely well drives straight etc. Guess ill just have to wait till i get her home to do some deep checking
