Default Gains with the LS6 intake with cam only?
What would be the gains in the 1/4 with the LS6 intake with a cam (B1 cam)?

i dont think I picked up hardly anything with mine to be honest. I did it and the cam at the same time and saw about 3 tenths total. I know the cam had to give me 3tenths so that means the intake didnt help squat really...

maybe the heads will bring it alive more LOL

I guess we will find out because it will be going on the car in the next few weeks along with some weight reduction. I'm looking to go all out this fall for the cam only best so little by little i should be ready by november when the cool air comes back again.
