Default Ls6 Intake

I have a stock 2003 vette. I had been told that these model years come with a LS6 intake or similar. Can anyone confirm or disprove this?

Really?

I thought the LS6 Intakes were only on the Z06's and the Coupe's had LS1 Intakes?

If this is true, then is it correct as stated by Chris308, that they started putting LS6 Intakes on the '01 and up Vette's (I'm learning Vette's so help me out here)?

ALL LS1 and LS6 engines 2001 and up received the LS6 intake manifold. This includes the Camaro and Firebird. Some even recieved an LS6 block, IIRC.

I tell you what, take it off, send it to me and I'll let you know if it's a LS6 or not (it is) ... laugh, but don't be suprised if you get an LS1 in return.

How do you tell the two intakes apart?

I tried a search on Google and couldn't tell the difference between the two.
