Some of the later FBodies had the LS6 block and the only way you can tell is by looking at serial number on the side of the block.
But they are both LS1's so they are the same engine. I had a picture on my desktop which crashed but it was a back to back dyno of a WS6 and C5 and the WS6 put down 20 more rwhp than the C5 did so don't let the Corvette guys tell you how their cars make so much more power than yours.
