Default Newbie Needs Help

So i'm new to the Corvette scene. Not new to cars and mods but just never really played with Corvettes.

That being said I got a smoking deal on an Edelbrock Supercharger from a friend. He needed cash badly and never installed on his C6. He isn't very Corvette knowledgeable either so here's where the help comes in...

I don't have a car at all. I do want to get a Vette but need to know which platform would be best for the Edelbrock Supercharger. I do a little Road Racing for fun so that's what i'm going for.

Edelbrock is close by and has offered to change a few parts for me if I get an LS3. Right now the kit is for the LS2 motor.

Any and all guidance is greatly appreciated. Once i've got the car i'll post up and even do a step by step of my building.

Thanks to all...
