Default LS6 Camaro intake vs. LS6 Corvette intake

Few weeks back, I ran across an article on the web that compared the 2 intakes on an engine dyno. The Camaro intake actually made more power than the Corvette in that test.

Now I can't find that article-- Anyone know of it and can point me to the site?

An LS6 is an LS6, there is no difference. I dont know what you were reading.

I'm confused as well. They should be identical.

They are, the engine dyno probably had to many variables. Ls6 corvette motor would have a better oil pump than 01-02 ls1, one engine could be broken in more than the other. Shitty comparo that downs the camaro, choose your literature more wisely.

the website is www.ls1tech.com!!! Youre on it! I think this the article youre talking of(scroll down)
https://ls1tech.com/forums/new-ls1-owners-newbie-tech/213148-jrp-s-faq-commonly-asked-questions.html

As far as the intake part everybody has already stated, LS6 intake is no different than any other LS6 intake. The article was likely comparing an LS1 to an LS6 intake.

YES! YES! It was an engine dyno! Just the intakes were switched. It was not a shoddy article, as I recall, good dyno charts.

You either know the article or not. Not asking for yor opinion on these intakes.

Yes the Camaro model LS6 intake made more power and torque. GM probably buried that article after I read it.
