Which first? cam or intake?

See sig for car specs. I want to get an LS6 intake and a Speed Inc SI5 cam for it but I'm caught between a rock and hard place trying to decide which should come first? Is it just my preference or would one compliment the other better? Thanks guys!

You could do either one first as they will compliment each other.I would do cam first if not together

It doesnt matter which you do first... The cam is going to make more power for ya and it will sound better... I would get the cam in there first if I were in your place.

i'd go with LS6, what are the specs of the cam though? if it's small enough you might just do either

I say cam first, but that ls1 intake is going to severly limit your cars performance. Why not do both??? Just put the intake on the plastic (credit card), it only costs a couple hundred in the F/S section i believe. That way you only have to pull the intake once.
