cast iron 6.0 ls1 or ls2?
The 6.0 ltr. iron block is in the LSX series (ls1, ls2,etc...) (4.8,5.3,5.7,6.0) The LS1 is an aluminum 5.7ltr., the new ls2 is and aluminum 6.0 with a wider bore spacing. The 6.0 iron block is the truck version with a different designation and I can not remember it right now but it is similiar to or may be calledthe LQ9.
yea i know they were lq4 and lq9 just wasnt sure if it was called in the car talk an ls1 or 2 because you blurt out lq9 and people are like wtf what is that ya know what i mean

The LQ4/LQ9 engines found in the trucks are more closely similar to the LS1 than the LS2, save for the bore diameter and heads.
The L92 is a 6.2L engine. It is not a "truck" LS2.
The Wikipedia entries on the LS and Vortec (truck) engines are good quick-n-dirty starting points for understanding these engines.

All LS-family aluminum and iron engines use the same bore spacing. The bore diameter and stroke are varied to create the different displacements.

ok I agree
The L92 is a 6.2L engine. It is not a "truck" LS2.
I did not say it was, it was just a designation that I could not remember in a previous post. When I did remember it I made a note. I have seen interesting comparisons between the L92 and the LQ9

Never said the L92 was a truck engine.
