Untuned around 290, if you get a good dyno tune then you will prob put 320 to the wheels.

well mine wasn't 290,I would say more than 290 with exhaust and a lid maybe I should get an LS6 intake and it would give me 30 rwhp,so a 98 with 350 rwhp with a intake,blowmaster and FIPK,no tune.

is an ls6 intake a direct bolt-on or does something else need changing along with it?

somewhere between 1 and 1,000HP
as said before 290-300

as for the dynotune, they put it on the dyno and run it, monitor the A/F ratio and make some fuel/timing adjustments to improve power

and LS6 intake needs to have coolant passage plugs i think, check out www.ls1howto.com

Sticky at the top. The hpp and maf may or may not screw your numbers up since they typically cause more bad than good.
