The numbers depend on many variables, the important thing is that they are all within 5% of each other.

Last time i check the compression of my motor it was at 220 190 190 220, this is on a B18b1 Ls engine. I was suprised by the high number, the motor had about 700 miles on it after a rebuild with 9.5 wesico piston and eagle rod, there over 2k miles on the engine now and i havent check to see how the compression is yet.

You've had 3 people here tell you that you're ok. What else do you want? Do you want us to tell you that your engine is screwed?
