Default Intake manifold

Hello I'm going to be installing a complete (Ls2 engine) out of a 2005 6speed Vette from a friend of mine he is going to a
(Ls7)427
& I'm installing the Ls2 in my 98 6speed Vette is there a way that I can use the Ls2 intake & throttle assembley on my 98 Vette ?
Thanks

Yes but...I believe that tests have shown that the LS6 outflows it.

I remember seeing a dyno graph somewhere on ls1tech.com I forget the exact readings, but I do remember that the LS6 performed better.

Yea I have done some searching a while ago and the LS6 came out on top. Something with the ports being to big to fit on our 5.7, cause that intake was fit for a 6.0. Thats what i was told. Good Luck!

Here is a great article I have saved that does a side by side comparison of different intake minifolds.
