when you see LSx in that capitalization and everything it means someone is talking about an LS series block/engine the lower case x takes the place of the number.

LSx = LS series motors (LS1, LS6, LS2, LS7, etc.).
LSX = New, large-cube, GM Performance Parts Bowtie engine block.

So, and LS1 F-Body would be a 1998-2002 Camaro or Firebird with an LS1 346 c.i.d. SEFI engine under it's hood. Many cars, trucks and SUVs came with LS series engines.

The iron versions of the block are associated with the Vortec name, but they're still LSx engines. Not to make that any more confusing.

The one thing I never did figure out is why GM used the Vortec moniker for the ASA spec racing engine. No LSx engine in any passenger car has ever been called by the Vortec name.
