Ok well first you have an ford 8.8 inch rear end with maybe 3.27s or 2.73s not sure on that as there are many that can be in their and you probly have a traction lock (limited slip) differential. As for compression each cilinder should be around 120 psi i hope you dont have 26 psi maybe 126 witch is good. BTW how many miles do you have?
