Default Stage 1 head , LS6 Intake Swap..

I recently bought a nice set of Stage 1 heads and LS6 intake..I know doing the H/C swap would give me good numbers but who has done just the Heads and Intake swap on a basically stock bolt on motor..
I'm more then likely will do a cam swap along with the heads but was wondering from any members doing just the heads and intake swap their experiances..Likes or dislikes ??
Thanks

Hey Tim, I would guess you will see 35rwhp with the heads/intake. Could be a little more/little less. As you said, I haven't seen anyone with before and after dyno runs after those mods. If you can, come and re-dyno the car before we swap the new stuff on. <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Where did you get the heads? I'm sure he will get a little more out of the combo.

Thanks Jason and more then likely I'll have it dynoed before ya'll do the work..I kinda figured it would be in the 35-45hp range as for as gains with just the heads and intake...
