Ls6 full bolt on numbers..?
So...... Currently have a 97 with ls1 cold air intake, long tubes, exhaust, x pipe, cam, ls2 timing chain, high volume oil pump.
I plan to add I near future a set of ls6 heads, 42 lb injectors, port throttle body and ls6 intake.
What numbers hp can I expect and are the heads and etc worth the money?
Any similar setups out there?

I have a 99 m6 with- vararam, LS6 intake, lg headers, small cam, B&B catback, and tuned by Speed Inc. I made 393 rwhp. I plan on doing LS6 heads next spring. I was told that if they are ported I will be making about 420rwhp. Hope that helped.

My 04 LS6 w/ CAI, LS7 Exhaust manifolds/Hpipe, Ti mufflers and a tune did:
383WHP
358WTQ
LS6 243 heads and Intake manifold are good for ~20hp... With a cam the heads will make more power..
