LS6 intake, Elite Engineering tunnel plate, ARH headers, and dyno tune. Other non-performance stuff - lowering kit, alignment, Katech idler, and swap out the Royal Purple trans fluid for Amsoil (my blocker rings are thanking me - I hope!)

I drove it home tonight - doesn't sound much different at idle but man does it howl when you rev it out! I scored 340hp on the dyno - I had visions of 360-370 but like the old saying - "If it was easy to get everyone would have it!" The guys at ECS did an outstanding job - the LS6 intake looks great and they did the throttle-body bypass as well as plugs and wires. They fought the front leaf spring adjuster bolts but they were seriously locked-up - looks like I'll be picking up another at Carlisle then try lowering it again. Also my gut is telling me that shifting is a bit smoother with the Amsoil than with the Royal Purple. Can't wait for track day on the 27th and let that baby sing!

340 with basically just headers is pretty darn good.

Nice! My '97 MN6 made 325/330 rwhp/tq with a Callaway Honker, B&B Tri-flow axle back and a tune.

Also the LS6 intake and the flip-tie mod on the air cleaner - plus Doug's expertise flipping the bits!
