Talking Compression makes me happy!

So i'm always worried about my engine blowing up and was scared to do a compression test in fear of it being bad. I finally got some ***** and did the test

It was 165ish -170ish across the board and the last cylinder i checked was 165ish and was probably cause the battery wasn't cranking as hard. I feel that is pretty good for being at 400+whp for over a year.

Feel free to share your compression check stories.

It seems the LSJ's have more compression? You never see the LNF making over 180 and i have seen a few people with LSJ's in the 200's.
