Default LS6 intake or wait for holley?

I'm gonna be doing heads and cam soon after my tranny gets done(which is this afternoon) <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0"> and was wondering what people thought about whether I should wait on the new Holley intake or go ahead and get the LS6? I like the idea of having ease of portability out of ther Holley, but i'm still not sure. What does everyone think?

I'm personally waiting on the holley intake. I have my heads/cam now but I want to wait on that because I would hate to spend money on the ls6 and then the holley be a lot better.

Yeah, I'm pretty much following your thinking. I just wish they would hurry up and get out so we can see results. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

yeah, i'm waiting for the holley to come out before i do the ls6 intake. i mean, hey, you got to wait either way if you are buying new cause i thought all vendors are out of them. i've heard different speculations about what price will be when it first comes out. i want to see how it does from holley, then see what improvements you get from porting it out.

At my last check the wait on the ls6 intake is 6 weeks. However, if you do the math... Backordered means double the time that they just gave you. So, that means about 3 months for an ls6 intake.

Either way you have a good wait in front of you. Go for the holley.
