Default Rwhp gain with LS2 heads?
I have the opportunity of picking up a set of stock LS2 heads for cheap. What kind of gain would i see on my LS1? 30rwhp? More

Thanks

+1 keep the LS6 intake. IMO I would have them worked over while they are off the car, would make the cam added afterwards more effective.

I'm trying to keep it a budget build. Right now i'm up to 600 with the shorties, Y pipe and heads. Last 400 will be spent on a sleeper cam and my goal of 400whp with a grand will be complete.... Then i'll add a wet kit
