Sorry but those studs are crap for $70 a set. Go with ARP studs. I know they are pricey but if that's a concern then do ARP bolts instead. To your original question, you should have the older set (3 total lengths per set) with the 2001 block. My original 2001 LS1 had the old style and my current 2004 LS6 has the older style, though most will read that 03 was the change-over year....that is not entirely correct.
I used those same studs for a year before biting the bullet and buying a set of arp. I had no problems with them. they torqued down beautifully and when I did the re-torque they didnt budge (no stretch) they are made by pro comp. id run them again.
