A normal C5 has an LS1 in it which is the all aluminum fuel injected 346 CI engine. A C5 Zo6 has the LS6 which is basically an LS1 but with better heads/cam. They are both the same demension wise. A regular C5 has the same engine as an F-body, just the accesories are mounted differently( PS pump, alternator, etc.) I believe the vettes also have drive-by-wire as well.

The motor will drop into an F-body no problem. Although you will need a transmission out of an F-body because vette's tranny set-ups are different. They are located in the rear of the car rather than being bolted right behind the block of the engine. You will also need F-body accesories and brackets.

If Motox is not interested I may be, if the price is right and it's an M6.
