RE: 72 misfiring, help please

When you check the compression you must remove all of the spark plugs. you should have anywhere between 110-160 i think, with a allowance of 10 psi between cylinders.

Hey, the number on the glass packs is 0823 i looked but cant find any matches. The exhaust does have a nice rumble to it, so i think ill keep them and just throw some headers on there.
