Post LS6 heads on a LS1?

I was wondering if a set of LS6 heads with cam and LS6 intake manifold would bolt right onto a LS1 motor and if the PCM would need to be modified at all?

should bolt right on they have the same block. i dont think that you have to do anything with the pcm it will read the differences in air flow and adjust itself.

You might find that you need to add a little more fuel I recall Nick from ARE saying that the LS6 intake (this was in 1999) leans out the cars up top.

Our gm sponsor on LS1Tech has given me a lot of info about the GM LS6 CNC heads check out some of the relevant threads.

I last made 450rwhp with my current setup (unlocked) but am going to stage III LS6 heads and possibly a stronger cam, I hope to have the highest NA dyno #'s in Chicago, 480rwhp unlocked and 500rwhp locked.
