Why buy and port and LS2 when you already have an LS6. Either port your LS6 or just save and get a fast 92/92 setup when you have the money. - my.02

I think I'll keep my LS6/port TB combine for now. One more question, should I port my LS6 intake? I've someone can do it for free. However, there's some thread mentioned about not porting the LS6 intake is better, IIRC.

^^ Anyone have an answer to this question? I've been searching this for a little while now and all I've come up with is just one guy with a low post count saying you can't do it.

How did you buy a LS2 intake for $115 brand new? That's cheap, even cheaper than a used one.

The gain is from the bigger opening, but even then the ported LS6 falls short of a FAST 90
