I do not believe that the LS2 TB "bolts on" to the LS1/LS6 manifold. Also, the electrical connector is different, though there is a converter (one of the vendors sell them)...You will need to have it tuned..

LS2 TB will NOT fit a stock LS1/6 intake manifold PERIOD! The LS2 TB needs a TPSI modified intake or a FAST 90 or FAST 92 intake.
Like previously stated, on a stock or lightly modified C5,,,that 90 MM TB will do little or nothing for you. Your best bet would be to install a good ported C5 TB.
