compression?

RE: compression?
I'll bet your Probe had a lot less overlap on the camshaft too. That has an effect on cranking pressure.
Back when, when I raced a 10.70 440 Dodge Challenger, the best combo I ever had in the car only made 110# without any wear either........
BTW, the engine had a true 11 compression ratio.......

RE: compression?
I am talking about a compression test, not the ratio.I am working on a 83 GT with a 5.0 HO carb motor that is going into a comet. we were trying to get an idea on the shape of the motor and the test yielded between 123 and 130 on all the cylinders. If its supposed to be around 150 then it looks like we are going to bore and hone the cylinders with the rebuild.
