Compression test question for 350L98
What are typical values I should expect. I will be doing that this weekend on my L98 350? (175-185psi?)
What is the accepted level of percentage difference between lowest and highest value?

Thanks

the actual number doesn't mean much, 150 is "normal" more or less isn't bad either. the main thing is the numbers should be within 10% of each other.
