Message I think those are the numbers of a worn engine, but not a dead engine.

When I compression tested mine, for instance...

1/ 65
2/ 32
3/ 58
4/ 89
5/ 62
6/ 70

That shows a dead engine.

If it were my engine, I would keep running it. What mods are you thinking about getting? If you're not planning on pulling the engine yet, just get the bolt ons you're thinking of and keep running.

If you are pulling the engine, I would say get new bearings (since youll be taking it apart) and re-ring it at the very least. Its a cost efficient way to refresh your engine.
