I would like to get it running by this weekend if possible.

Very nice! I'm a newbie to LS stuff and building one for a '33 hot rod. The alternator mount and coil brackets are what I'm looking for. Can you advise the sources??
Thanks

It is a M6.

Smidge over 500 ?

This thing will make 530rw+.

Agree with an M6. Don't know what mods you had on the LS2 but you won't see a massive peak gain. Most of the gains will be under the curve but the car will be a ton faster.

It needs an adapter harness.
