Default Cylinder head installation kit differences

I'm about to buy a "cylinder head installation kit" which includes the head gaskets, head bolts, and a few other gaskets needed. They list 2 part numbers, 1 for 1997- 2004 Corvette models equipped with the either the LS1 or LS6 engine, and the other for a 2002 Camaro and Firebird models equipped with the LS1 engine. I know the pre '04 LSx engines use long and short bolts, and the '04 and up use all short. I'm a little confused as to which ones are correct.

"16 cylinder head bolts and 14 cylinder head bolt/screws"


http://www.crateenginedepot.com/stor...P1075C114.aspx

"20 long-head bolts and 10 short-head bolts"


My engine is from a '00, so I would need long and short bolts, but for some reason the second link says for 2002 model year F-body.

Can someone enlighten me on the correct kit?

Probably a typo on their website. Call them.
