Default Re: Pulled my spare engine apart for inspection

Fired it up this morning, started right up except for me over-choking it.

Ran a compression test while it was warm, mostly looking for consistency at this time, as the rings will take some time to seat. Between 50-52 in all cylinders, would be nice to get in to the 60's + after it breaks in. Oil is clear, so other than the drippy head I think it can go in the car. Still no sign of any oil on the floor, big test will be getting it on the road.

Thanks to all that provided good information and constructive criticism. I'll probably be installing it in the car very soon.
