^ Not really worth it on stock internals. Get your bolt ons finished up first, then look into heads and cam. An LS6 intake is a good step for a stock internal engine. 20hp gains for the LS6.

Agree finsh bolt ons then look into heads/n/cam, the ls6 intake is honest a great intake,yes a fast setup is better but on a stock internal car I do not see a fast beeing worth it,
