I myself would go for another intake if this is your plan, just for the fact that these intake manifolds come apart on there own. I have seen 5 of them myslef that have seperated. I would so with the N20, keep the intake you have now.

Sorry i thought I mentioned which intake I was referring to. I was saying to not go with the Fast Intake, and to keep the LS6 you have.

No point in the FAST if you are stock heads. As much as possible avoid a bottle neck in airflow.

Id save for heads and FAST and forget the juice. (Im sure that cam is craving for more air) its cheaper in the long run.
