long block. #1 was my lowest at 11%. All the rest were between 6% and 9%. 120,000 miles. Did you give the tops of the valves a couple taps? I had to give a few taps on the exhaust valves to fully seat them, maybe a little carbon build up? You can hear a distinct hollow sound while tapping if they are not fully seated. Sound will change to a solid thud when they seal up. That can affect your numbers slightly.
