Default choosing a intake

First off in have been researching this for weeks. Im doin a max effort 5.7 I already have the cam and heads. Cam is a g5x3 with PRC 227 heads. Is the ls6 a better intake for this setup or the Fast intake. Also planning on putting just 100 shot on it, with that being said the ls6 money maker kit is sweet but im still looking to make a max effort build.

Not sure why it's a question if you are wanting max effort? The Fast intake will outperform a ls6 intake 10 out of 10 times.
