most people gain 10-15hp from the ls6 intake depending on what mods are already done. its just another piece of the collective whole when it comes to mods

I do not think that an LS6 intake will flow fuel better than an LS1 intake. I would think most fuel flow is dependent on fuel pump and injector sizes. If you are going with ORY and LT's then the answer is yes. If you got both the LS6 intake and LT's w/ ORY, you would surely feel the gains.

The idea is to flow AIR not FUEL. With that said, the more air you can get into the engine, the more fuel you can add and keep the mixture the same...

Anyways, I installed my LS6 intake after I did my cam and headers and it certainly made a difference.
