ls6 will always outmatch a ported ls4 in any scenario. Your best bang for your buck will be the ls6. This will be my next mod. I need to start my research on this project now, so when the time (and money) comes, I will already know what needs to happen.

Read over the sticky very well so you know what your getting into. The vlom just needs the oil pressure sending unit relocated/angled. Any shop that welds aluminum should be able to do this relatively cheap. Then you just belt sand the ridges off the bottom of the ls6 intake and your good to go.

ALSO, did not really loose any mpg and yes I kept DID keep dod. You will for sure need a tune afterwards, as my car was pretty lean with the swap.
