I beleave for starters you need a different tb. and I think you may have to change the fuel rails.

But, it's been said many times before, just go with the Ls6 intake. They flow better in stock form. Or, get the Ls2 ported and do a 90mm tb. to see how it goes.

****... I might do it... good luck

Don't bother. If you have the LS6 intake mani already - the LS2 would be a downgraded as previously stated. Even with a larger TB (90mm) the LS2 intake flows worse than even an LS1 intak mani. Even getting the LS2 intake mani ported, and going through the hassle/expense of a new TB, it would still flow about as well as your un-ported LS6 intake mani.

ported LS6 > LS6 >= ported LS1 > ported LS2 > stock LS1 > stock LS2 intake mani.

Basically to install it you would have to buy a 90/92mm TB and either purchase or fab a bracket for the throttle cable mount. Like mentioned above, it won't make a big enough gain to really be worthwhile. However, we have seen ported LS2 intakes move some decent air. That would be the only way I could see it being worth the time and money. At the point you are having to buy a TB and pay for porting, you might as well save for the FAST 92mm intake.
