Default vararam LS2 / LS3

Hey guys, I need some advice/help
I have a brand new vararam set up for an 05-07 LS2 complete with extra shroud.
But, I have an 08 LS3 car..
Can I modify it to make it work or should I try to sell it and get an LS3 unit ??

Thnks

It might be best to sell it and buy the LS3/Z06 unit.
You can change the MAF and rework it a little bit but it might not be worth it.
You might want to keep the shroud though as I think that might be the same between the LS2 and LS3 cars.

It's not just his word LOL, it's actually a known fact that the MAF/MAF housing of a C6 LS2 is different than that of a C6 LS3.
