Do not know about the LS2 and the L92, only that they are not optimal for stock cube LS1s. GM stopped using the LS1 intake in 01, all Vettes and F-body's got them. The F-body's did have an EGR valve, I have not seen one but would think it could be blocked off if needed, it may not be an issue at all.

It is a good mod to do, better throttle response

All '01 and up LS1s/LS6s have the same intake, it's not really an LS6 intake, per se, since all cars (camaro, firebird, gto,etc.) had them after '00.

Also, no "LS6" intake had an EGR. I think SLP sold a few that had been modified to accept an EGR, but they never came from GM like that.

The '01-up intake and the LS2 intake have been put on a flow bench and the 01-up intake flowed better. The LS2 is basically a bored out version of the '01 LS6 (385 hp). It has 243 heads and the same '01 Z cam. I guess, because of the overbore, it produced more than the targeted 400 hp so they tuned it down by putting a restrictive intake on it.

The L76 is the LS7 intake and the L92 are LS7 heads.
