lq4's are 99-02 with Higher Compression?
lq9's are 03+ with Lower Compression and with better internals?
I've read so much I forget whats what now.
What's kinda a price range these are going for also? Thanks!
What were the 6.0 specs?

LQ4 has lower compression because it has dished pistons. LQ9 has flat top pistons and higher compression. Just make sure you stay away from the 99-01 because they have the longer crank snout that causes problems.

pl4yboy is right on, cept I've never seen a 2001 with the long snout. I have only seen it on the iron headed 99-00 LQ4s. Could have been some 317 headed ones though.
99-00 had iron heads as well, correct?
Correct Xlr8n. Sorry, I was probably off on my years. 99-00 sounds right.

what was the different compression ratios? and did the newer motors have better internals?
