LS1 to LS6 ?

Would there be any advantage to changing the intake, MAF, and possibly the throttle body from existing LS1 to a LS6 setup? The motor is stock except for Vararam and smooth inlet pipe, also Corsa pace car exhaust. If any advantage, how much, and is it worth the trouble and expense?

Your 2003 came stock with the identical intake manifold, MAF sensor and throttle body as the LS6, so no.

The only difference is the heads and cam. Go for it.

You have an 03, you already have them.
