Well I got my compression gauge last night and tested it while hot, Full throttle and it only got to between 100-110 PSI. I know it should be between 148-152 PSI. Not good. I just checked this morning and No wonder the thing won't start cold. Friggin 50 PSI. I have no Idea why it is running so smoothly once it gets going and why it is not blowing any smoke. These engines must really go when everything is good inside.
I did think it was a little under powered, but i thought that was just because I needed to get it dynoed.
I will look at the bottom eng while I have it open but if it looks alright I'll leave it and just do the rings,timing chain, valves and springs. I guess i won't know until it is apart. But if anyone knows of who to call or to get parts from let me know.
