i have a 00 Camaro and i'm buyin a forged short-block in about 5 months and i'll be puttin a LS2 manifold on top. i bought the LS2 manifold because it flows better than the LS1 and was incredibly cheap with fuel rails and fule injectors . . . anyway my question really is does the LS2 not have a MAP sensor at all like the LS1/LS6? or is it plugged in somewhere else? nothing is on the backalso i've looked in the classifieds but couldn't find one, don't suppose anyone has a stock LS2 TB laying around? does anyone have the MAP sensor for a LS2? (i'll check the classifieds for that also)
It is on the front passenger side of the manifold. You will need to get the extension harness from Casper. I think I payed 30 bucks for it, or you can cut the wires and splice in some wire if you want. I use my stock LS1 map sensor. you will also need to get/ make a throttle cable. I cut my stock one up and made it work. Someone sells a bracket that will allow you to not modify it.

i have my old LS1 on the floor with 26lb injectors, but for the new motor the LS2 30lb injectors are better and it does flow better than a LS1i'm just lookin to make it work for the engine for close to a year then i'll be selling it with the fuel rail and injectors
Cool, you also know LS2 injectors are 34# right?
I dont remember how I did it but I hacked that thing up. Do search about it someone made it work with out chopping it apart ( I found it after it was done). The way I ended up doing it, it wont work if you dont have traction control. If you need them I can get some pics in a little bit.

i'm thinking if this starts to looks like it'll cost me way more than a LS6 (which is what it's starting to look like) i'll just sell this manifold for what i paid for it and get a LS6
