upper plenium: JLP or C&L

does anyone have experience with either one??
I know the stock upper plenium is a restriction and I was just wondering which one is better JLP or C&L, I know the C&L is like 1/2 the price of the JLP and that's why a lot of people run it but does anyone have evidence as to which one is bettter?????

I think a better question would be would the gains from the jlp be worth the money at the level your at. On the 2.3 kb's yeah the thing makes a big differance but i dont know about an eaton unless you spinning that thing to the moon. Or I could be completely off. You could get a c&l extrude honed for the price of the sheet metal one. Also dbl G has an eaton intake coming out somtime that looks killer.

Extrude hone the stocker and save yourself alot of money.

I ran mid 10's years ago with an extrude honed upper, it flows just fine.

my eaton is ported and polished along with the stock upper, I'm looking at running a MP case with cobra rotors and of course a SB TB, guess I'll try a SB TB first and after the Killer Chiller get's in see what my IAT's and numbers are sitting at

it's a '99, 4# lower, long tubes, no cats, no mufflers at the moment, guess I'll put my $$$$ into the fuel system now
