you will see only a small HP increase with these mods, around 5-8HP, it will bring greater increases with ported heads/cam.

I agree that you will probably only pick up about 508 rwhp. IMHO, I wouldn't do this mod until you at least decide to add a cam.

What year C5 do you have? 2001+ already has the LS6 intake manifold. Just checking to make sure.
