How much h.p. do you think you'll get if you extrude honed the stock exhaust manifolds?

I've seen a few guys extrude hone their stock exhaust manifolds on their Vortec 5700 motors....very close to the same motor as the LT1.
I think Clint got like 7 RWHP and that other guy got around the same....7-8 RWHP.
The answer to your question is....not much, buy headers.

I had SLP extrude honed manifolds before I installed headers. They were worth 10 HP.

Cost of production and emissions.
That just another reason why the C6Z is so bad ass. It says to hell with what everyone else is doing!
