Default LT1 to an LS6?

Can this LT1 be converted to an LS6? What are the differences? Thanks!

there is nothing similar between the two engines. you might find a couple parts that can be modded to fit but other than that, no.

OT - I saw your 93' while searching around on webshots, is yours the blue/green/gray metallic? (original color listed in brochure)

There is one thing you can swap though you need a shorter driveline: an LS case for LT1 gears with a strange 12 bolt. Vibrates like a **** launching so you may want to consider a fabbed crossmember.
