Message	My car has been sitting over winter, and I'm about to take it to Chicago for a dyno tune. So I have been going through the car. I ran a cold compression test. The block is built, so this may contribute to the low numbers due to needing clearance for expansion and the rings will seal better when warm but the numbers seem really low to me. The block has 3000 miles on it. Cyl 1: 105 Cyl 2: 105 Cyl 3: 110 Cyl 4: 105 Cyl 5: 110 Cyl 6: 105 They are pretty consistent numbers though. Maybe I'm just stressing over nothing, just wondered if anybody has seen anything like this. I'm going to put a scope down the cylinders tomorrow to check the walls.
