Default Anybody believe this?

Everybody is talking about going with 6.0 and 6.2L setups to get 500hp. But I seen on TPIS site they did a manifold comparison and got like 510hp out of an LS1. Heres what they had. Basically a LS1/LS6 bottom end, 243 heads, their ZL15 cam, better conn rod bolts, and variety of intakes, and tuning stock ecm with efi live. Here is the link. I was thinking about going to a L92 to get about 520hp but if you can easily get 510 out of an LS1 then why not. http://www.tpis.com/index.php?module=2_17_06 whatcha think?

on here people are talking in rwhp numbers and on that website they are talking crank numbers, not at the wheels. so it doesn't sound so impressive anymore
