Nice find !
Why not just drop in an LS3 though ?
Seems its rather common an upgrade I'm reading (and some friends have done the LS2/3 install in their C5)

Excellent find! I found my crate ls6 last year locally. Paid $4800 for it and sold the clutch for $200. Put it in with my son and neighbor and car runs great. These are very hard to find.

Yours looks like mine. Looks like a ctsv ls6 with a dual mass flywheel and clutch. I sold my clutch to a buddy with a ctsv and used my existing ls1 batwing oil pan. Put the ctsv oil pan on my existing ls1 for future old school project

I want one because it fits. Ls2/3 needs headers. I have headers for an LS1. Along with everything else. Why spend money if you don't have to?

Nice find. Good luck with the install.
