You should have seen my 2000 SS when I ran the Seafoam through it. Much worse than that and I did it twice! The LS1 cars have a problem with the PCV setup pulling oil into the intake and I could see the oil buildup on the TB so I decided to do the Seafoam twice. You should see when you drive it down the road at 3-4000 rpm's! I had a white smoke trail for about 2 miles and it cleared up just as I went around a corner and passed a cop. It definitely helped the car even with only 42K miles on it. I now run a filter on the PCV setup to catch the extra oil.

I figured that was what you did since your motor sounded super advanced when you intially tried to start it.
I wouldn't put the blame on the seafoam then .............

Slowly pour it in or the car will stall out... But I always use the entire can.
