putting a LS6 on a stock internal LS1 might give you 5hp if that. Generally you wont see the bigger gains from it unless you have cam/heads

every bit helps, but is it worth 399 bucks?

I grew up on a farm 675 acres mostly commodities.
Helped my dad for 21 years and then he retired from the Biz.

Thanks, Dave
