What would you do with $2k and a LS2?
What would you do with $2k and a LS2? Exactly what the title says. Few things; already have long tubes, also can not use a FAST intake it wont fit in my rx7.
I was debating cam+100 shot but i'd like to stay N/A if I could.

I would do a cam/clutch/underdrive pulley...the stock LS6/ls2 clutch generally wont hold the power of a cammed motor. LS7 works great though and is cheap. I see alot of LS2's putting out over 430whp cam only. IM probably pretty close to that with a mild cam and LS7 clutch.

The LS2 intake manifold like the other OEM plastic manifolds(LS6/L76) does not benefit much from porting, but all LS2 manifolds have a huge problem involing internal leakage or "cross talk" by fixing this I have seen gains of 12-15hp and 8-11 ft.lbs. As far as your budget goes heads, cam, and LS2 manifold mod. I offer several stages of porting for LS2/L92 heads 460-500 plus rwhp with streetable cam.

A reasonable price for a good valve job on a set of heads 3-5 angle on the intake and radiused exhaust valve job would be around $125-$150((The valve job process is very under-estimated 70% of your airflow is 1 inch below the seat and 1 inch above the seat and whats right in the middle of that the valve- job.)) As far as the manifold with a deep port match and sealing it internally would run around $350.
