3. 200
4. 230
5. 190
6. 235

Told me to put some oil in cylinder 2. I did and the compression went to 200. He told me my rings are bad. I hear more leakage in the lifter valley than I do in the head ports.

This machine shop was recommended to me by a forum member rlane5. He claims that his previous motor ran 11.70 with the help of this machine shop I believe that's what he said. Funny too because my old boss had a 1958 Corvette that ran 8.40s down the track and used this same machine shop for his car. I found this out after I used him for my heads. Also my old boss' buddies go there for their machine work and have some pretty fast cars in the 7-8 second range.
