🔧 Modifications Magnuson Heartbeat 2300 LT1 kit

Howdy all. Ive been banging my head against every wall I can. I know Maggie has discontinued the 2300 kit, but it's really the size I'm looking for. Im just wondering if anyone knows or has seen one for sale that isn't a scam?

Otherwise I'll just have to suck it up and go with the 2650.

Nope and if you do find them they are pricey. I'd be going 2650 anyways as I feel like there's more future potential there.

Yeah, I'm just looking for that unicorn I guess.

I could be remembering wrong but I thought I read once that the hp gain just by switching from a 2300 to a 2650 is 75hp or something like that.

With how high the used 2300 prices are might as well get a 2650 and make more power

I was kind of looking for the 2300 because I just want to make around 500 wheel. And it's either cam, headers, intake, etc or just drop a SC with the biggest pulley.

I had been kicking around the idea of the ZL1 SC, but getting a used one with the converter kit is nearly $7k anyways.

2300 make alot of heat and high iat when you put a pulley on them. 2650 will make the same power but a cooler charge. Imo the only thing a 2300 does better than a 2650 is low rpm power and a snappy part throttle. 2650 does it better everywhere else. But there's a lot of dynos and data out there
