I would get LS6 over the holley. There have been reports of sealing and gasket problems with the Holley intake.

Ls6 over HOLLEY any day...no heat soak w/the Ls6 like w/the holley and I hear the flow of the LS6 is better.

Now I PERSONALLY would wait till the LSX from Fast comes out if you have patience I hear it's gonna be a BAD ****!!!

Here's a couple links for you.

Here's an old thread
