Lots of factors determine compression condition of motor of course but temperature, density, humidity and altitude all contribute. I think the numbers I gave are conservative for Arizona. Like I said with a failed AOS bent rods are a possibility. Then piston to dome height increases and compression decreases. Not trying to be pessimistic, just think I would want to eliminate this potential. Good Luck.
