The LS6 engine can be retrofitted. Unfortunately the trans and rear from an LS6 vette will not work because they are completely different from the f-body setup. The C5 has a rear trans axl coupled with IRS. You will be better off using trans and rear from a wrecked 4th gen.

I agree. The LS6 will go in fine, so will the tranny. It's a plain 'ol 4L60E just like in the f-body's. Only difference is that there is a 'Torqe Tube' in between the engine and tranny. Kinda in the place of a driveshaft. The rear definitely won't work. It's set up differently because of the IRS.
