compression test and S/C

[jumping350]

Thought I would put this in its own thread as im the only one and GMB who comments on my build thread :lol:

had my compression test done today and the first 4 were at 180 but the back two were on 170, not sure if its meant to be like that? would these results be ok for me to go S/C?

 

 

Below is results for each cylinder

170 170

180 180 (Oil in spark plug hole)

180 180

You have a build thread?????

 

 

They will be fine mate - oil in plug hole (usually the rear on bank 2 goes first) is the cam cover it cannot be replaced you need a new cover at some point to fix that.

 

what's the mileage?

i just call it 'the thread that never made it'

Cheers buddy im just ticking onto approx 71,000, yeah i figured that about the oil, I thought I had gotten away with it till the plug got pulled and oil dripped everywhere

71k - just run in and loosened up should be just right for some boost

 

 

Or maybe a nice forged engine to drop in there - may be one available soon if my car doesn't sell
