Default Do i have an LS2 or not?

Still trying to figure out some issues other issues with this damn car...In the meantime, can somebody verify i have the LS2 with the 58X reluctor wheel?

I read somewhere the newer ones with the 58X wheel had 6.0L stamped IN FRONT, not on the back of the block...

(Grey) Cam sensor?



Front of block minus water pump



243 Casting heads



6.0 L



back of engine:



Side view...vette mounts?



What do you think?

That is definitely a LS2....But to check for a 58x or 24x reluctor wheel you check the CRANK sensor located on the lower passenger side of the block...Black=24 Grey= 58...

the easiest way to verify is look at the crankshaft pos. sensor above the starter area if its grey it s a 58x you can also pull out the sensor and look at the reluctor wheel the 58x has alot of small teeth.
