I had a compression test done monday to see where im at as far as cylinder condition.
Heres a pic of the results, not so good.
My tax return won't be enough to do a rebuild this year lol, and I really need to address other issues like the rear leafs and new rear shocks (and one tire) anyways.
So my plan is to check and adjust all the valves to spec (got alot of good info from FABO already) and add engine "Restore" as directed and see if that will buy alittle time before I get it rebuilt while I work out some of the other bugs.
Also can anyone suggest a good carb and cfm number for when I do get my 273 rebuilt? I will be upgrading from the stock 2 barrel to a 4 barrel and using my Edelbrock D4b intake, slightly hotter cam and maybe the commando style pistons (if I can swing it) . Not in a hurry as I will be saving up most of this year. Thanks all
