if you look at the numbers that stock LS1's put out you will see that eliminating the emissions, doing common bolt ons, and getting a proper tune can be worth 100hp.

so by bolting on a carb manifold and proper size carb,adjusting it to run properly, removing emissions restrictions the stock engine would make the 100hp claim over the bone stock factory tuned efi.
no doubt bolt on's done to the efi engine to help it reach the 100hp increase your refering to would benifit the carb setup as well.
i just believe it would be easier and more affordable for the avg user to install a carb setup on a thirdgen like mine because you wouldnt have to spend the money to have it tuned over and over again plus spending all the extra money on wiring and computers. on top of that by just using a carb intake over the stock fuel injection setup would would gain nearly 100hp out of the box.
