Cripple Rooster,
I had never really seen variable ratio superchargers before, just looked them up. Neat concept, I will keep it in mind.

Deejaa,
Sorry to hear you have to tear into yours, I would love to get a 92-93 CC SRW 6.5L one day as a tow vehicle. Just got to finish the Suburban first.

For those wondering, the prior Saturday (3rd) I did tear into the Suburban, and despite a few hiccups managed to pull the old engine, transmission, and transfer case. Sorry I once again forgot to load my pictures. I have been cleaning and degreasing the parts and pieces I will be reusing, as the old motor had some oil leakage that gave everything in the engine bay a nice coating.

Had some family stuff come up, basically consumed most all my time since, I am sure everyone can relate. When I do get a few minutes I have been weighing all the parts and pieces I have taken off, I want to get a good baseline for where the weight is on these GMT-400 vehicles. I have plenty of little projects do to get this thing ready for the next campaign of installing the new powertrain.
