what year lq4 for 99 camaro ss swap

I would like to install an lq4 into my camaro but I was not sure what year engine I needed and do I have to worry about reluctor wheel tooth count or anything else for that matter. Will 2001 and up engines work in a 99 ?? thanks

This. Lq4's were made up to 2007 (mine is an '07 from a Hummer H2). '04-up had the better rods and floating pistons. ALL lq4's have 24x reluctor wheel.
