It will all depend on the intake, carb selection, headers and exhaust to determine the "possible" output from a stock 6.0.

What are the cam specs you speak of outside of lift? There are different LS6 grinds and i dont know if any with .525 lift besides a "hot cam" grind.

What size long tubes? what kind of holley? I will assume well over 400 foot pounds TQ with that setup.

I know Ive seen a lot hit the 500 mark with the 317 heads, and a decent cam with the Edelbrock manifold, and a good model 750 after being tuned. But then again the hp numbers I speak of were from one of the chevy magazines and I didnt pay attn to the power curve and I know a lot of magazine projects fudge on numbers to help the vendor of the parts theyre using for the article. I myself am planning on building a mild LQ9 with L92 heads so Id like to know some numbers also.

Should be in the 400 range with HP and over 400 with torque.
