What would the compression ratio be for .030 off of a 5.3 head?

Sounds pretty impressive to me.

Really, NE6t9 will be on here explaining it even if it made 430rwhp + it's not a "real" 430rwhp because the converter was locked or something lame like that.

According to TEA's calcualtions, it should be 11.4:1. We tuned the car on 93 octane with no KR.

The lift was just under .600, on a 112LSA. IT is a custom grind we spec'd out with Comp.
