Default 6.0 cam/intake only and turbo ?

how many guys on here have a stock longblock minus intake and cam.

I wanna run a ls6 intake and ported throttle body with my s475 and wondering who has done it?

what head gaskets should I use? arp head studs, part number I need to?

HOw much power are you making and how fast are you?

Im trying to figure out if it will be worth it.

Id like to do a ls6 intake and cam with lifters and valve springs. Thats it and no more extra items. THen add the turbo and turn up the boost.

That Pro-Flo XT is definately helping your stock shortblock make killer power. I wonder if anyone has done back to back testing from LS1 to LS6 to Pro-Flo. Maybe I should hit up some vendors and do a little dyno article.

there you go!

I think lower boost it doesnt matter much but when you get up to higher air flows is where it really shines. I just thought it looked cool, and was super cheap compared to a fast or ls6 etc

I would like to do a Holley but at 12 inches high, it wont clear much, the pro-flo is only like 10 something i think.

Also what is the compression on the stock lq9 that you have with ls9 head gaskets?

What heads are on your engine?

you would have to check differences in compressed thicknesses but im pretty sure they are the same or very close. I want to say compressed thickness of .052 for some reason. They shouldn't change static compression at all.
