Did a compression test today, finally.. all cylinders are 180-185... Spark plugs had no oil on them, tips look normal in color. no unusual wear on the cam lobes... cylinder leak down showed 5%. Leak down doesn't seem right the tester is kinda iffy. Going to get a new one and see if there is a difference.

My compression numbers are way better than expected for a built motor. So seems the piston ring seated well. That is a relief..

That is awesome news and the comp #'s have come up quite a bit. That twincharge setup seated them well after all
