99-03 have the return style and 04 and up are returnless, look at the fuel rail to see if you have two fuel lines on the driverside by the intake.

and here is a copy/paste from another forum.

im looking to change setups. hopefully i can find someone in the houston area wanting to do an LS6 manifold swap. heres the kicker.

i will do all of the work necessary to get your truck running on the ls6 manifold. i need someone with a return style fuel rail to make the swap with.



I WILL SUPPLY:

LS6 intake manifold
LS1 style map sensor
New manifold gaskets
Ls1 stile manifold bolts
97 corvette fuel rail
Idle pulley relocation bolt and spacer
I will modify your alternator/power steering bracket to allow for clearance
All gas lines/clamps/hardware to make the system work correctly.
and a few other miscelaneous sensors and relays.

Possibly the belt if you have an asp underdrive pulley.

YOU SUPPLY

L92 water pump (I can get you employee pricing on new parts)
LS1 style injectors
LS1 injector pigtails
Belt (if you do not have an underdrive pulley)
coolant

I will also need a few little miscellaneous parts from you stock manifold that I had to modify to get the ls6 manifold to work

Bring me the parts I need and I will have the manifold installed and running for 500

The intake goes for 300 easily, the fuel rail cost me 125 (and is extremely hard part to find), and after gaskets, relocation kit, and LS1 style bolts the parts alone are worth more than 500. ill install it all for free. You must have a return style fuel rail though. Not trying to be picky but that’s what I need. I chopped some of my fuel rail so you wouldn’t have to modify the OEM fuel lines. In the process I ruined my rail but saved some very expensive lines.
