to do a real ls6 swap would cost more than that. i mean the block and internals are different as well.

Cam's included, pushrods on LS6 are the same, base circle difference on the cam is made up for by longer stems on the valves that come with the heads. Pistons on LS1 and LS6 are the same from '02 on, compression difference is due to combustion chamber volume alone.

Yeah, the heads have raised ports and smaller cc combustion chambers.

to me it still seems like a waste of money. $1600.00 (?) for just a little more you could get stage 2 heads and a cam. which pending on who you go with most stage 2's and a cam now of days has somewhere around 420 rwhp.which is way better than 405 to hte motor (around 350- 360 rwhp) ???
