C6 LS2 drive side manifold will clear, but you have to use a turbo K-member.

drivers side manifold or passenger side?
This gentlemens thread in post1 shows he's using what i would assume is the passenger side manifold. Is that right?

LS2 and LS3 C6 are the same. I'm using a C6 drivers side mani on the passenger side going around the ac. Here is a pic without the compressor on, but you can see how it would go around it. Check the link in my sig to the build thread for a few more pics.

No, you have to have a turbo style K-member for the crossover piping coming from the manifold to go through.
