Default Heartbeat on LS2.

Can you put a Magnuson Heartbeat supercharger on an LS2?

Belt routing between LS2 and LS3 accessories look very similar, if not the same from some googling.

Could you use these adapters?

https://olson-kustom-works.myshopify...adapter-plates

Would this ruin air flow? Push the supercharger up slightly enough to mess up belt tension? Make it not fit under the hood?

If that wont work, will doing an LS3 head swap allow me to run a Heartbeat on my LS2?

Anyone know if it fits under a ZR1 hood without having to use the hood spacers? There is no hood liner.

Has anyone does this?

mine fit under the hood...2008 zo6, the tube off the 108mm TB to the air cleaner hits the hoot a little. I did not use any subframe spacers nor did i take the insulation off the hood

It should still clear with the spacers. The belt routing should be similar enough too. If you're ready to order a Magnuson hit us up. We won't be under sold.

You are using an aftermarket throttle body?

If you took your insulation off, do you think it would still be hitting? I have a carbon fiber zr1 hood and I sure would hate to have some rubbing damage it.

How confident are you? That’s a lot of money to spend if it wont work.

Is the heartbeat available in polished? I see some older pictures where there were polished versions but I don’t see polished available as an option on the website.
