LS6 production years, but not sure how they are much different from LS1 as far as head gaskets are concerned.

That's why I "had to ask" lol. I'm like whaattt. They're the same bore size etc as an LS1, and will be used on LS1/6

It's just funny is all.

Oh and G, LS6 started in 2001, so 02-04 isn't specific to anything, that I'm aware of at least

Yeah, now that you mention it, I should have known that. So yeah, good question on the years mentioned!

There were changes made to the LS6 in 2002. Wouldn't surprise me to know that they changed head gaskets, too.

They basically started using the mls in 02 or early 01 and up. From then on thats nearly all they used even on 4.8 and 5.3. For non notched heads you can use these gaskets on 4.8 5.3 or 5.7 setups.

I think what I had in mind was the cam went from 204/211 to 204/218 in 2002, among other changes. Head gaskets too, apparently.
