Default TB/Header upgrades???

would it be worth it to swap from a ls6 intake manifold and a jantzer ported TB to a 90mm lsx/90mm TB on a lunati 395 stroker. i know it will help but how much? also should i swap out my FLP 1 3/4 longtubes for some 1 7/8 QTP's? how much would i gain from the header swap?

thanks any input will help

can't tell ya what you'd gain, but swapping both the intake and the headers for the upgraded parts would definitely help you out. combustion engine = air pump. better ways to get air in/out can't hurt.

I gained 27rwhp going to a 90/90 setup from my LS6 and ported T/B, not sure on the headers.

Thumbs up

Yes, I think that swap (along with tuning) would definitely be beneficial to your set up.
Great choice on the QTPs btw, I have them and love them.
