I am out of town, but my buddy sent me a beautiful site. Had to send the bearings back due to clearance issues. So these beauties will be sitting here until Tuesday.
What ratio are you wanting to get? and what size pistons and rods are those?
The ratio is 10.2:1. E85 is plentiful out here. The pistons are 3.905. I do not know exactly the cc on the piston yet. When I get back in town we are gonna go over everything.

Ok, I'm trying to figure out what size rods in need for a 10:1 ratio, gathering info will help me haha

I gotcha, if I am not mistaking the rod length is 6.125 on the 5.7 across the board... I believe... so in order to get the proper compression, you'll want to look into the type of piston.I am not 100% on the specs of my pistons yet, but the piston is what gives you the compression.
I am thinking of going stock sized but forged internals. I think the stock LS! compression is 10:1, which is what I want for a boosted & meth injection build
Man your ride is coming along very nicely, There nothing like the day you get to fire that puppy up and row through a few gears, its gonna seem like your on the Star-ship Enterprise for them first few months, and as things finally all get settled in and you become more and more familiar with how she responds to different situations and inputs, you will begin to get comfortable with all that new power.
One thing though, never and I mean never ever let your guard down, Just when you start to feel like your the Boss that puppy will become a Rabid Dog and try to bite the hand that feeds it.
Super job your gonna be having a large time with Pup, looking forward to seeing her finished.

Thanks man! I really appreciate the boost! I do get nervous about it, you said it perfectly... respect the ride! I am hoping to be in it around next week. Will keep you guys updated.
So, due to fabrication issues, we swapped back to a stock intake and throttle body. Meow, we just having the intercooler piping and fuel system installed, more pics to come.....
