Default What's better for small boost app 6.0 or 6.2

Well I have a iron 6.0 and a aluminum 6.2 that been bored 005 over with forged pistons and mild head work (basically three angle valve job and milled)...
6.0 cam is a gt2-3 cam and the 6.2 is ls9 cam
For boost I have a p1sc 8 rib running about 8 - 10lbs boost...
Exhaust is 1 7/8 kooks mid length....
Going into a third gen Camaro (6.0 is in there now)
Intake is stock ls1 6.0 or stock ls3 6.2 with 80lbs injectors
Transmission is tick built t56
Any input will help.... Is it worth the work to swap to the 6.2 or is the 6.0 stonger will take more beating ect.... I personally don't mind doing the work and like the idea of having the 6.2 in the iroc....

Worth the effort is debatable.

Both will be capable of similar power, and a P1 will never trouble either of them.

But I'd prefer the 6.2 purely as it's lighter and larger capacity.
