Actually, the LS6 intake was in 01, not 00. Not many got the LS6 block. It's just the block, and nothing else (no internal LS6 components).

If you would just read the sticky at the top of the LS1 info section, it will answer all of these sort of questions.

The only main difference in the LS1 block versus the LS6 block is the windage opening in the bottom of the block and the casting tecnique that GM used on the LS6 block.

The larger windage opening were "suppossed" to offer better high rpm losses versus the LS1 block.

It's just bragging rights, no real benefit. The intake gives a bit, but that's all. The one guy on eBay trying to sell that nice white WS6 tries to make the LS6 info a huge selling point. He's just doing anything to justify the $35K selling price he keeps listing it under.
