will handzel did it is his book for HIPO chevy engines with ls6 heads and cam at 9.915 compression it made 398trq @4600 and 389hp @ 5800
this was through shorty headers and stock exhaust with stock intake box. With supporting mods like lt's good exhuast, intake and complete tune I would expect to make around 450 crank power with ls6 heads and cam.

There are better cams out there...I know the LS6 cam looks good because of the price but you can do ALOT better with a little research. Check out www.vincihighperformance.com for a GREAT selection of truck cams from one of the best in the business !!

I've been able to purchase a used LS6 cam/springs/pushrods ($125 shipped), new LS7 rockers ($154.36 shipped), new 5.3 heads ($355 shipped), and new 2.08/1.60 stainless valves ($70 shipped). I'm hoping for around 475HP for under a grand.

An LS6 cam with 1.8 rockers is gonna net .583 lift.....that's cutting it pretty close to reccomended for those springs, I'd at least spend the money on Comp 918's if for no other reason than peace of mind in knowing you've got a good set of springs controlling your valve-train
