Default 6.0 l96

I bought a 2011 6.0 out of a 2500 2wd truck that I am putting into a 71 chev.

A friend of mine has an intake, injectors, and fuel rail off of a 2013 camaro.

Will I see much of a gain in power with the camaro intake?

I know they look better, but I hate to mess with changes on a low mileage motor ( 19,000 ).

Thanks

John

It has the L92 heads. I read in an ealier disussion that it is the same part number used on the LS3.

Is this info wrong?

Sorry I misread that. Switching the intakes is worth minimal power if any.

Thanks for the reply.
I'm not looking to build up the motor, just do the swap and have a good reliable cruiser. I have the chance to buy the intake and It would be easier to change out before I get the motor set in.

If the intake doesn't gain me anything but a better looking engine compartment then I should just leave it stock.

The L96 is E85 compatable......would the camaro intake change that too?

Thanks

Yea save your money for something better. The rocker arm trunion upgrade is a great cheap mod that delivers a lot of peace of mind for durability and reliability.
