Question What year do I have?

Dose anyone know of a good web site to cross block and/or sensor numbers to what year vehicle they would have come in? I bought a 6.0l off of ebay and iI am have troulbes getting it to run correctlly. I think that it's a computer and sensor problem but I'm not sure enough of the year to know it this would be an issue. Any ideas? I tried my local chevy dealership NO luck.

There's a laser-etched number at the rear of one of the heads, that specifies the vehicle and year it went into. Post the number and I'll decode it tonight when I get home.

How is it running? If you give some symptoms, somebody might chime in and tell you what the problem is from experience. Because there is alot that can go wrong or not work properly on these motors. Just a thought.

I will post the numbers off of the heads tonight(4/21/05). When I first start the motor it runs fine for 20 to 30 seconds, or less and then starts running rough. the longer you let it run the worse it gets, to the point that it will start spraying fuel out of the tail pipe! I had it scanned and got a couple of codes:p0102 low MAF fre.,po463 fuel level sensor high voltage,p1115 ect Intermittent voltage and p1638 Generator terminal CKT. I have tested the wiring harness for the correct voltage to the plugs and it checked out. All of the sensors are stait for GM parts direct except for the MAF witch is a Granitilli. I think it's the computer but have serious doughts about that. I have a new one coming in tomarrow thus to rule that out. It was flashed by Jesse Bubb at Wait4Me!! Performance i highly recomened using him the tech help is awsome!! A friend told me that i have not let the motor run long enough, five minutes total for the computer to learn in park and five in drive at a stop. I have not even let it come up to tep. because of the amount of fuel it is dumping, I have FUEL in the oil it's sraying so much. If computer doesn't work i'm out of ideas, and I'm starting not to think that's the problem. ANY help will be very helpful!
