Default LS-7 intake on LS-2

Will the LS-7 intake work on an LS-2 and still using my existing throttle body and MAF? If so what kind of results? Thanks

Nope, ports are totally different between the two cylinder heads, they will not even come close to matching up. The throttle body is however the same peice.

It will work if you are going to put LS7 heads on the LS2 also.

It would if you could use the LS7 heads on the LS2, but if I remember right the LS7 intake valve at 2.20" OD requires a minimum bore size of 4.100" and the LS2 is at 4.00".

Yup, I had the same idea until I found this out.
