I didn't know the ls2 had VVT. However, if you have a 98 computer, it won't work with that. But I would def use the ls2.

VVT is very cool technology that is beneficial in a lot of ways in the right hands.

That being said, it is not cost effective to attempt to convert a non-VVT engine to VVT. And LS2's are not VVT. If you want VVT, buy a car that already has it.
