All 6.2's have the painted mirror caps as oppsed to 5.4's only getting them with the luxury package. At least, according to an order form I saw once.

Damn guys. Chill out.

As to the OP's original question... when I saw my first 6.2L, the engine block was more visible to me, behind the front suspension. I don't remember exactly, at the moment, but I think I recall seeing the head clearly as well. Not so on the 5.4L.

Do I win? What's my prize?? :)

Creative answers folks!
But. Look at the VIN #.
The 8th digit specifies which engine--
"5"-5.4
"6"-6.2

Corny eh?
