Wasnt worried about dependency of the engine. I was just curious if there was any major differences such as mounts, wiring, ect... anything that wouldn't let me use a gto ls1 motor in a 2000 Camaro.

Everything is a direct swap for 04. The 04 should be the LS6 block, which had a few minor improvements over the standard LS1. Nothing that effects installation and running. It does have better bay breathing and I would recommend an LS6 valley cover and ditching your stock LS1 valley cover and pcv system. The block is internally set-up for it, might as well use it.
