Same length head bolts started at very end of 2003, so all 2004 model year engines have same length head bolts.
Floating rods started in fall of 2004, some 2004 model year engines have floating rods. All 2005 model year and up have floating rods.
This is not information I've heard or read on the internet. This is from hands on experience from ordering parts for rebuilds and tearing down many ls series engines.

after a little more reasearch i found out that the reluctor wheel stayed the same till mid 2007, others on here where saying that from 1999-2006 they had the lower number and from 08+ they had the newer sensor, that or 07 didnt use a cranc sensor that year lol, i guess my only concern now is if the 04 lq4 i am looking at has the ls2 rods or not,
thanks guys for the help but i guess my questions where out there already answered
so do you guys think stock pistons will hold up?
