Nope, all v-6 automatic transmissions have an open differential.

Good to know . Scratch that project . Thanks man .

Hm. But if I swapped to an SS diff, It would be a LSD?

Seems like that's more dependent on the diff than the tranny if that's true...

Yes it would be LSD. The SS rear end and diff is larger and handles more torque and hp. Also the manual V-6 is a LSD that the SS ring and pinion fits into.
