LS1 -> LS6 Conversion Hey anybody have the LS1 to LS6 conversion package from GM Performance Parts? Is it worth the $$? Any dyno results?
Whats the est. gain out of just doing the LS6 cam, pushrods, springs?
One more question: What ratio are the stock rockers and are the roller or not? Whats the biggest ratio you can run with the LS6 cam (1.6 or 1.7)?
Thanks.

From a 02/03/04 LS6 cam you will gain 15>20 rwhp +\-.
Stock rockers are 1.7 ratio and are roller pivot but not roller tip.
The highest with that cam 1.8 /1.9 but if that is what yo want just get a TR220 package from TR, it will be cheaper than rockers and cam and better power, easier on the valvetrain.
Better yet, get a TR224, 0.563 114lsa and call it a day, get a 112lsa if you are M6.
