I'm pretty sure it's a 47, they can look it up for you at autozone. I personally use the truck filter. Either for the 5.3 or 6.0 Silverado. It will fit, but it's a bit more surface area on the filter.

The PF47 won't fit, that is the one for the 3.8 V6. The new AC filter for the LS1 is the PF46.

Or you can use the UPF44...the higher grade PF44. Ultra Guard PF44. Much better IMO. Or the PF59 which is the longer of the 2.

I don't know about now-a-days but back then the PF35L's were actually cheaper than the PF35s that would be great if it was that way with the PF59
