crap i didnt check the number! altho it looks like it but i wanted to make sure. mayebe some one can verify. car is a LS1 2002+ caprice SS. theres a complete 2001 camaro there which has LS6 intake but am buying 2 with my friend thats why i asked. thanks all.
thats why i asked. thanks all. No need on the injectors or tb. You will need the coolant line and coolant plugs though so snag them if they are there. Also I'd get the ls6 valley cover to upgrade your pcv system while you have the intake off.

If you're talking about an LS6 valley cover, you won't be able to reuse the LS1 coolant line because of the nubs on the top of the valley cover. Even if you grind down the ribs on the bottom of the manifold. I've been there

Yup ls6 intake....another way to check ls1 vs ls6 is to look inbetween the intake ports.......ls1 intakes have x shaped ribbings inbetween the ports while ls6 intakes have square ribbing

The point was the coolant lines will not fit if he decides to use the LS6 valley cover because it has raised nubs. With an LS1 valley it will work.
OP- also upgrading to the LS6 valley cover is a good mod to do while swapping the intake. If you don't want to use the two rear plugs, I've read you can use two front crossover coolant lines, one for the front and one for the rear. I have not actually done this myself so if someone knows for sure you can't use a front crossover coolant line in the rear please speak up.
Btw, when talking LS6 valley cover, it means all 2001 and later LS1. So all '01+ LS1's have the LS6 valley cover/PCV system and intake. Just incase you didn't know. The later '01+ style PCV system/valley cover is very beneficial to the motor and very easy to change over. Just fyi.
