LQ4 crank pics plz!!!!!!!!!

i'm needing to see if anyone has a pic of the rear of a crank on a pre 01 6.0L.
i have a 01 LQ4 and i believe i'll be safe to use my ls1 flywheel and clutch but i just wanna be sure.. it's only sticking outta the back of the seal about 1/8-1/4 of an inch. everyone tells me that the early ones stick out a 1/2 inch.. any pics or help would be appreciated.
i would post pics but my engine is at the machine shop at the moment...

I thought the first production year of the LQ4 was '01.

When I read "How to Build High Performance Chevy LS1/LS6 V-8's" it had casting numbers for all of the LS engines and the first casting number for the LQ4 was an '01. LM7's had earlier production years.

i have an 01 6.0L with dish pistons i thought it was an lq4... so, regardless with the 01 lq4 (that sticks out the back of the seal 1/8-1/4 of an inch) i should be okay with the crank length so i can use my ls1 flywheel and run my t56? right or not??? i'm just worried

lol
