Well, I just did a compression check on my 306. I went 5 compression strokes per cylinder. Results are from cylinder 1-8 in order:
130
141
150
140
148
150
146
148
Given the 15% between highest/lowest rule...I'm right on the limit for that #1 cylinder.
Do y'all think it would be safe to run a 75-100 dry shot on this rotating assembly? It's all forged and ran pretty well with the blower. There's no smoke coming out the tailpipes either.
Thanks
Also, this was done on a somewhat cold engine (been sitting for a good 3 hours or so after being ran).
EDIT: I just realized something...I didn't have the throttle plate opened.....So you can probably elevate those numbers a tad. Add this to the fact that it was a semi-warm engine (and it's forged) and I think my numbers would jump up a decent amount.
