The cam in a ls6 is different, exhaust manifold, cat-back, air box.
As far as your car goes there are tons of differences

the orignal LS1 piston was made by Mahle using a alloy called M124... the LS6 got pistons made of M142 (more copper and nickle)... this allowed tighter bore clearances.
but thats when the LS6 first came out.. i dont know if all genIIIs have them now or not. knowing GMs modern rep for updating everything GenIII that proves itself, you probly already have them...
but im not positive.
