lq4 compression test results

[tmills213]

Compression test. 2002 lq4 with 205K miles. drove it home, pulled it, sat for 2 weeks until now. I think I know the outcome of this.... is there anything I could be missing. I read some stuff about carbon build up and valves. The heads were coming off anyway so I can see what things look like but if it all looks ok... demmit. I was hoping to avoid lower end work. I know the cranks are "good" up to maybe 1k horse but would it be a simple ball hone, rings, and rod bearings if I were to redo it... or do I go to forged goods? its going to get boost some day, if I ever stop pulling this string on the sweater.. :/
