Out of the blue question:
What is the compression ratio of my stock 5.3 vs. my new LQ4? I know the LQ4 can take a little more boost than the LQ9 safely because of the lower CR, is this true of the 5.3/LQ4? Just wondering.

Day 2
Got the tranny dropped. Finished installing the springs on the new engine. Drained the radiator, oil, etc...Got the fan pulled and half of the wiring harness unplugged when we were told to clean up?? The shop closes at 4 on Sat/Sun instead of 8. 
So we lost 4 hours today and tomorrow. Looks like this will roll into next week. Mark (the guy helping me) was really getting irritated with the Radix 
He has never installed a s/c before. Tomorrows plan is to finish pulling the engine, pin the crank, swap accessories, and put the stall and tranny back in. The Radix will be attempted Sunday or maybe Tuesday. Time flies when your having fun.
Question, Mark thought I couldn't use the fuel pump voltage booster with a return fuel sytem. Any reason why I can't?
