That is a very good looking exhaust! About that cylinder pressure test you did, 130psi is kinda low. It did not look like you had the throttle plates opened and you didn't seem to let it spin 6 time or until it stops climbing. I bet you would have seen about 150psi, where it should be. Nice job on the rebuild, it sound like it runs good! Just say NO to Fram filters! Lol
thanks! I did the compression test on a fairly cool day and there also wasn't much time on the engine, maybe a hour so the rings were still breaking in. that might be why it is low. it was also a home cylinder hone so might not seal as good as a fresh hone from a machine shop but runs strong! Also yes I'm staying away from fram and now luber finer oil filters! thanks for watching!
That sounds PERFECT, great job guys, can't wait to see it out on the streets!
