Idle Speed

Hello Corvette world. Does anybody know what the idle rpm should

be on an 08 convertible with the "standard" engine (LS2 I think)? Mines idles at around 500-550 rpm according to the tach. If it should be higher how is it adjusted? Thanks...Hey all. Just checked engine. It's an LS3

550 is where it should be.

Thanks. I've read other posts where folks are quoting 700 and up and I was curious to know where the correct idle should be. Thanks again.
