Default 2007 6.0 Engine Individual coil over plugs?

Have a chance to pick up a 2007 Chevy Express Van 2WD with 6.0 engine for a street rod swap. It's a distance from me...would that engine have indvidual coil over plugs?

Thanks

Thanks..new to the LS engines...this is in a E3500 van..the 4L80 is more than enough tranny for my needs. Is it possible that this engine could have steel heads?

Not if it's an 07 motor.

Terminology - the LS engines have individual coil packs for each plug; "coil-on-plug" is different. Coil-on-plug set ups, almost alway seen on DOHC engines where the plug is in the middle of the head, allow the coil to plug directly onto the spark plug with no coil wire in between. So, NONE of the LS engines are coil-on-plug. They all have individual coil packs.
