It's not "flow ratings" that guys are switching to the LS6 as much as it is plenum volume. That's the big difference between the 2.

From what I've read here through the years, the LS6 seems to be better above 6k...

I think if you retuned it for injectors only then your just letting the setup failper your choice.
Let him retune it for the intake not the injectors and you might see a differance.
You don't swap cams and only change fuel......just my .02
