how can i tell a 97-99 ls1 from a 00- 2006 ls1
any identifing features on how to tell on the block what year it is?

iirc those were the years , the later had better oiling.
motors are not in the vehical , it does come with the wiring.
its out of a camaro 98- 02 says the owner
the intakes and heads are not original says the owner
doesnt have any accessories on it either its just a long block and a short block as a package deal.
