Default 243`s vs 243`s

yes ,I did lots of research

Just want to be absolutely sure that the

LS6 243`s have the same 210cc/75 casting then the 5.3 L33 243`s ???

I know that the valves & springs are different but all I need to start is the castings .....


So are they the same ?


thanks

Dan

the 799s are also basically the same just a different casting process

Not strange just began using a good part on a larger number of vehicles later on.
