joker, I'm pretty sure your comp. #'s should be 95-100 lbs. I have been told/read not to expect #'s like 125-140 on that motor. I've done it by warm engine, having all plugs out, throttle wide open. Not sayin that's the ONLY way to do it....just how I did it....right or wrong.

I've not been able to find published compression numbers on any of the engines I've fooled with. I would like to know though.
Hearsay is the loopers do have a higher compression value and a less than %10 difference between cylinders is preferable on all engines.
Joker, I'd keep running the engine like it is. I'm not tired of this thread but really there's not much to worry about with what you've got. At least from what I see.

just took a quick peek over at iboats, no factory specs, just dialog amongst members there, those #'s seem to be anywere from 90+/- to 105+/-....the 10% rule being most important. Ask Skools out.....he knows just about everything on the omcs
