Installing a stroker LS2
I'm putting in a 402, but I found a few things different on the LS2.
- I'm reusing the windage tray and oil pan from the LS1. My H-beam rods are hitting the windage tray. Did you just add a spacer or use an LS2 windage tray.
- The LS1 has lifter valley knock sensors. The LS2 has no provisions for knock sensors in the lifter valley. Did you mount these on the outside of the block?
- I think I know the answer to this one. There is an extra sensor on the back of the block (I think it's a cam sensor). I think the LS2 has the sensor on the front cover and thats's whats in my LS2 conversion kit. I'm gonna recheck the box if it had some directions.
