Message	Its got about 10k miles now, checked compression a couple days ago and got the same readings you did 120 to 127psi. I talked to Kyle at IPP, he was who I delt with when he was at SGP and his comments were the 120 was normal for an engine with the head work done. I suspect some of the head polishing and to what extent the Weisco pistons are contributeing to the lower compression.
