LS4 was the 5.3 in the 2005-2008 Grand Prix GXP, Impala SS, and Monte Carlo SS
LS6 was the high output LS1 for the C5 Z06
LS7 is the 7.0 for the C6 Z06 & Camaro Z28
LS9 is the supercharged 6.2 for the ZR1

come to think of it, they skipped the LS8 as well. Though I heard a few years ago that it may have been intended for a supercharged 6.2 for use in SUVs, possibly as something like an Escalade-V or some such craziness.
The new LT1 should have been code named "LR1"
