Default Do LS Motors Share The Same Main Caps?

I bought a bare LS6 block but it didn't come with main caps. I got a great deal on LS2 main caps. Will they fit? I know I'll have to do a line bore. I'm mainly concerned with the bore diameter and the lining up of the bolts.

The LS2 main caps will work. The diff caps are as follows

LS1/2/3/6 along with the iron truck blocks work the same.

LS9
LS7
LSX are all different. They are dowelled along with offset holes.
