LS1 to LS6 questionglennxx1 01-12-2003, 03:38 PM i have a 94 z 6 speed, but im about to get a 99 6 speed, im wondering, if i put the zo6 cam/heads/intake/...what else? will it put me at 405 like the zo6 or no? SunsetWS6 01-12-2003, 03:58 PM It would be the wrong way to go if you're LS1 is running well. Just get regular stage II heads/cam & you'll make more hp. The only time I'd get a LS6 is if I blew up my LS1. Then you'd just have to port/polish the heads & get a larger cam. glennxx1 01-12-2003, 04:14 PM so if i get a LS1 car all i need is heads/cam and ic an put out more than 405? and thats b4 a S/C? and when i get a S/C do i need to get the blower cam to get peak horses? PhantomTA 01-12-2003, 04:16 PM most head cam headers LS1's makes 400ish rwhp alone, much more than a ls6 glennxx1 01-12-2003, 04:18 PM well hell, would my LT1 do that? or is that just how much better the LS1 is? i can get a supercharger etc etc but im hearin alot about these LS1 engines that they are 9x better than the LT PhantomTA 01-12-2003, 04:25 PM most lt1's dont do that... Ai 01-12-2003, 06:13 PM Eh, as stated.. you don't need LS6's at all. The LS1's will make up to ~470rwhp on a stock shortblock without a big cam. If you know what you're doing anyway ;). LT1's arent hard to get over 400rw either with LT1's if your shortblock is in good condition :). Obviously, they arent as easy to get the power out of as the LSx series by design. If you dont make over 420rw with heads/cam LS1 cars, then your stuff is garbage. :) glennxx1 01-13-2003, 12:03 PM lol, well lets say i have the vette LS1, 340? or 345 horses rather than the LS1 thats in the maro, if i put heads/cam/headers, (by the way is their a site with ktis or any thing?) and when i get a supercharger am i goin to lose possible pwr bc its not a blower cam i have in it? any way what heads/cam/headers would u suggest?
