Great video Question for you does the gs550 and the gs550L use the same head i cant find the oval dual carbs anywhere but i can find the four carb set up can i swap the head thanks
Hard to say without looking at it. But, I would check valve adjustment (make sure they aren't adjusted too tight and not seating closed) and cam timing.
I found it easier to strip the wheels and tires and forks off the frame then lay it on its side and pull the frame off the engine

Could you give me an estimated guess on a price to rebuild the top end of my GS550
I just got a 79 gs550 and it has almost no compression but everything looks good inside. What do you think?

It could also be piston rings
