Default LS2 Manifold

hey i was just wondering... wouldnt a LS2 manifold and TB bolt right up to my 408?? im looking for a cheaper upgrade than a FAST and that way ill also have the 90MM throttle body.

is it possible? they used the LS6 heads on the LS2's right? so id think it would work?

stock for stock the ls2 has worse flow numbers than a ls6 according to everything i have read. alot of people were let down because they thought it would be a cheaper 90mm intake and tb. there has been threads of people doing port work and making them flow alot better but they have to do things like cut them open and epoxy it back together. do a search or 2 an you will see what i have read

Hey Lost.. send your LS6 to TPiS and have them put on their OVAL snout and TB.. people have gained some serious #'s with those.. like 15-20hp just from that... i plan on doing this too when funds are available

whats the cost of that? wouldn't be rivaling the cost of upgrading to the fast intake?

the fast is a proven performer so even though it is more expensive you know for sure you'll gain power.there is alot of conflicting comparisons comparing the ls2 v/s fast,some say they lost to an ls6 and some say they gained. bite the bullet and get the fast 90/90. just my .02
