They'll probably kill a few ft/lbs down low but you probably won't notice a significant drop in acceleration off the line, Hell....that cam probably kills more than the intake ever will (the intake may even help that cam down low)

I kinda got the impression from that thread that it was kind of up in the air.....the LS6 is great intake no doubt but I'd love to see some bench numbers on both intakes

Most were syaing the difference is that the LS2 has a larger bore size so it is commonly mistaken to be better 4.000 vs 3.898
