Re: Low compression on 5.3 swap

You may not like doing this, but we have had the rings stick quite a few times on LS/LT engines. My suggestion is to squirt some transmission fluid in the cylinders. Crank the engine over a few times to make sure it is all around the cylinder, and let it sit about 2 days. This usually frees them up.
