I did search and read that they should work since the lq4 is post 00. The ls1is out of a 98 if that matters. What I read it should work but I just want to check since the flexplate actually look different.
My 5.7 is completely flat, but the lq4 is sunken in a little bit with raised converter mounting points. (well, that's what it looks like at least... Lol)
Can any one confirm if it will work or if something needs to be done to make it work, this is a dd and need it on the road.

No visible part number on either one.
Someone has to know the answer to this please. A sponsor or something. I don't want to put it all back together and in car just to drop the trans to change the plate later when I find out it doesn't work.

If the diameter, bolt pattern, depth is the same, no reason why it wouldn't work

just an update in case anyone else has this question...
i contacted texas speed and they instructed me to just swap the flexplates and be sure to remove the spacer on the 6.0
