Question Need help identifying a what 6.0L i going to buy!

Hello guys.
I'm making many changes to my car rigth now. I'm buiding a 8.8 rear , do body and painting job and changing the motor. I sold my 5.7 ls1 from my camaro and i put in layway a 6L motor today. Now the donor car is an 2500 Chevy passengers Van 2008. In the hood label it says 6L but i don't know how to identify in the Van if it is Lq4 or Ly6.
What i need to do to make it work in my z28?
What heads casting numbers i have look for?
This motor have VVT/AFM ?
Just for you to know i going to build a turbo project from my car.

If its a 6.0L then it's (VIN K, 8th digit opt LY6) with VVT and also here is a link to every VORTEC (aka LS truck)ENG with specs:

What exactly i need to do to use a LY6 engine in a 99 z28?
I know if i have the l92 heads i can use the LS3 Camaro intake manifold, but what else i need to do to make it run in my car?
