2001 C5 and LS6 Intake
I have an 01 C5 and am getting ready to do some mods. I have done a search and seen that differnt people say that the 2001 C5's do and don't come with the LS6 intake manifold. What is it? Thanks.

Actaully, from threads that I have read in the past, they are both right 
Somewhere in the middle of the 2001 production year (I couldn't tell you exactly when) was when the switch occured.
Sorry I can't be more specific. Hopefully, someone that knows will chime in.

I know it's confusing but that is really the only way I know of to determine this unless you have the manifold off.

You should also check to see when your build date was to see if you have the first generation of coated pistons. If your car was built after April of 01 you most defenitly have them. WWW.Jacklatham.com has some good info you may want to check out which can answer alot of your questions.
