Quick question regarding LS6 in an T/A
Quick question regarding LS6 in an T/A Hey everyone, I'm new here but not to the LS* world. So I'm not here to flame or anything b/c I own a Ford. I was in the F-Body world before this new car so I have much respect for them and know perfectly well what they are capable of. Just here as a fellow enthusiast! Anyways...
I trying to help my younger brother get into an F-Body and we found him 01' WS6 that supposedly has an LS6 swap. The car is 4 hours away from here and we will be going to look it over shortly.
My question is are there any quick giveaways that is will be an LS6? I know that since it is an 01' that it would already have an LS6 intake if it were in fact just an LS1. But to make sure it is an LS6, will I be able to see any casting numbers on the heads or block just from looking the car over? I know the LS6 head is a 243 but I have been out of the game for a while and just looking for some quick help. I would appreciate it!
Thanks alot,
Graycen

Heads are 243
Where is the best palce to see the block pad from standing outside the car? I know the motor tucks nicely into the firewall on these cars and makes viewing things difficult sometimes. Can I see the pad looking down into the engine bay on the drivers side or do you have to look underneath?

Also, where are the casting numbers on the heads? Are they visible?
