And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why you ALWAYS test used parts before installing them. Glad I had the presence of mind to do this.

I guess I'm shopping for an engine again. Keep hibernating, little Pulsar.

Low compression is good. Less parts under pressure :P

The lower the compression, the more boost you can add right?

How did you spin the engine fast enough to check compression without installing it first?

Another pro tip: if you get a fancy tub test to make sure the pipes are water tight before installing it.

My parents got a fancy jet tub and the first TWO they got leaked
