Talking Ls1 Lid Or Ram Air Box Which to Choose?

I got Ws6 hood coming next week. Time to get LID or Ram Air Box Setup.
Only problem is can't find Ram Air Box For decent price. How hard is it to get the LS1 lid to work with the Ws6 hood? Its the Factory Ws6 hood for LT1 not big nostril one.

I put the ls1 lid on mine. The factory ram air box is hard to find.. The ls1 lid goes on pretty easy you just have to mod the bottom of the ls1 airbox to fit the lt1 radiator support..

My Question is how good is the LS1 LID? The LS1 Lid takes the air in the front & Bottom? how good will it get the air vs OEM
LT1 Ws6 Ram air box takes air at top.

i feel they are very close to each other. now if you look at the fast toys they offer a larger MM diameter which is larger than the Lt1 ws6 air box i DO NOT know if it will make a difference or not the motor combo will decide that.

I was checking Fquick and i found a LT1 Formula Ws6 with the LS1 LID he has picture shows the hood can see inside how it lines up.
