LY6, L96, L92 will bolt right in.....Oil pan, Intake, Exhaust Manifolds & all! The L92 is a 6.2L.
If your replacement engine has VVT, You may want to delete that to get away from the failure prone timing chain tensioner.
You "MAY" be able to make the VVT work...But I'm not sure as VVT engines were never backed by a 4 speed auto so you may run into some ECM hardware issues.
