These engines came in 4gens with the 8.0:1 being gen1&2 (aw11 and early ae92) and the later were 8.9:1.
My question is when you compression test the 8.9:1 what kind of results would you be expecting.
Mine comp tested at 140, a friends at 150. Im under the impression that the highest result from a compression test of an 8.9:1 compression would be perhaps 160 (brand new?)
I need to know because I went to checkout a prospective engine purchase (guy saying its an ae92 4agze) and it had 175 at all 4 cylinders... Is this actually possible?
Its my opinion someone has changed up headgaskets or possibly even shaven the head on him before he bought it... either that or they just plane sold him a 4age 100kw. I dont see a 4agze with 8.9:1 getting 175. Thats more intune with a 4age.
