I've heard of people looking at build dates and these not really telling the whole story. A good number of people have cars delivered in early '01 and still have all the '01.5 features. So what should I look for other than build date? Badges, F hose?

Newer badge usually gives it away.

Default F-hose, 01.5 and up does not have F-hose and they have a different
intake manifold, longer runners, and Mbox instead of H box
