Don't tell anyone what dealership it came from LOL....
lol.. I wont..
lq4 and lq9 have diff combustion chambers dont they? or did they get the compression from the pistons?
I guess i'll go pick it up this weekend. I am going to build it to handle alot of boost. I will most likely stroke it, upgrade rods and pistons, and im not real sure what else. thanks for the feedback!

lq4 has dish pistons, LQ9 has flat top pistons that are also coated. Lq9 has better rods too. Both are good foundations for a nice build.
jegs gets $699.99 plus $119.00 freight for just the 12572808 block.
Piston differences cause the compression difference. The rods are better in an LQ9 too.
