takes me about 8 hours to swap a motor in my garage. pulls out the top and the tranny stays in the truck.

I kinda thought the low compression 6L would be the way to go. When you did the swap did you have a P/N for that one. The high compression one is 12499467.

i'd still go with the high compression 6.0 unless you plan alot of boost. 8-10psi on the silverado ss trucks is not uncommon without a problem. why go with the low comression if you don't have to. some have even ran the 2.75 pulley on a radix with the LQ9 and not had any issue's other than air intake temperatures getting too high from the blower.
