Thanks guys!
I don't know the spec for these engines. I do seem to remember reading something about them running low tension rings or something of that nature. So perhaps the rings are not sealing well.
50 psi doesn't sound good if that is average for all cylinders my guess would be it skipped timing or worse. You could confirm that by pulling those plastic plugs and checking cam timing.
