Default Which motor?

I am buying a GMC 2500, and I am wanting to determine which motor it has in it. Is this something I can do strictly by looking at the VIN? It is a 2004.

I found it, it's the lly. Thanks for the help guys.
By the way, I just ordered the AFE turbo mouth piece, and the resonator cap for it through alligatorperformance.com
