I'm clearly being impatient here at the startup phase which is ironic given that this engine has been sitting in the garage for over 8 years waiting for the restoration to get to this point! I'll definitely check out "companion cylinder". I will run it a while before checking compression again. It occured to me that the rings haven't seated yet either. By the way, what kind of compression numbers should I be looking for when broken in? Thanks for the advice guys! Dave
