Checking in with 2 cars using the LS1 intake making 680-700rwhp.

I would like to switch to the LS6, just haven't found the right deal yet.

I have an ls1 manifold/truck tb currently. I also am thinking of going with the pro-flo. I have a fast 92mm tb and fuel rails waiting to go on whatever I end up with. I have read many other places that the pro-flo is great bang-for-buck when you have the room for it (i do no problem )

I would have the ProFlo if it fit without cutting or having to remove wipers. As far as cost, it is rather inexpensive IIRC. Under $700 w/ rails?

There still seems to be a lack of any public testing available.

My understanding is that clearance can be made as there is plenty of material there. If you are going to run a seimens/motron (60-80#) type injector, no action is required.
And another down fall is that you have to run the pro flo fuel rails as the bolt holes are spaced differently. However, they are the same price as any other aftermarket rails, so you can sell yours(if you have aftermarket rails) and go to summit and order the pro flo rails. I got mine under a stock hood, and plan on keeping the drivers side wiper, just have to fab a bracket.

I plan on making my fast fuel rails work on the pro-flo. Making brackets or whatever it takes. I have heard though like you said they will not just bolt up out of the box.

pretty sure it is TPIS

There is a drag car in Oz than has run very low 8's on a stock LS6 and Stock TB a few years ago.

Given most pipework is 3" OD, the stock TB can hardly be considered a restriction given it is pretty much 3" also.
