Default Re: engine compression levels.

My rule of thumb is that Model A & Model B engines with stock cylinder heads will run well on compression gauge readings as ow as 50 psig, and no more than a 5 psig difference between cylinders.
By the way, boring an engine increases its compression ratio a bit.
