How much better do the heads flow? My guess is not much.

i have that entire article somewhere.. picture and everything.... i get a kick out of it..
also explain to me how that ram air helps on a stationary object... (ie. the dyno)
the ls6 intake is the only one you will benefit from once you start building.. and thats minimal also... the heads you wont even notice.
and you would be guessing spot on..

but like i said, none of that really matters.. they all run about the same... a stock 98 273 base model fully loaded trans am could be faster than an 02 z28 stripper with 323s... is it likely, no.. but could and i am sure has happened..
depends on the driver/individual car (notice i didnt say year or make)/track prep/tires/condition of car/ etc etc etc..

Is this the article your talking about Lemons ?
F-body Cams
`98-00 ; 198/209 .500/.500 119.5 LSA
`01-02 ; 196/207 .467/.479 116 LSA
BTW the change to the 6.0 truck cam in `01 was done more so to help eliminate the EGR because of it's tighter lobe spread.
The biggest difference in heads is the casting process witch gave the later heads a smoother port surface. Everything else is the same and any power increase is neglidgeable.

One thing that is a BIGGIE here: The '97-'98 block has an inferior oilling system compared to 99+ . GM did some major revisions between '98 and '99 . Yes I know the F-body did not have the LS1 in 1997 but the Corvette did.
