Default Differences bwtween 98-02

Looking at getting an LS1 TA. Hopefully a WS6.
Anyways... What changes were made between 98-02. I know in 01 they switched to Ls6 intakes. What other changes were made? What year did they start coming with 17"s instead of 16" wheels?

Thanks

i hope you were just joking. if you werent, then you just made yourself sound stupid, but funny. well, back to the subject at hand, the 01-02 models came with an LS6 manifold, no egr cuz of a better cam, and i think i read somewhere that they came with the ls6 block. im not sure if thats true or not. i think they started coming with 17's starting in 2000 cuz my TA is a 00' and its got em. other then that, read the sticky like stated above.

everything i said was true...whats the big deal? i mean so what if the 98-00 were 40rwhp faster, the 2001+ look so much better! i mean a 5.3 is a 5.3 and theres no 2 diffrences about it! so just buy a "hotcam" which is the biggest cam for ls3's and you will be unstopable!!!

make sure to buy a 2000 just becuase it came with a rear cup holder!
