Default B16a2 compression question

So heres the problem. I just bought a b16a2 swap.did a compression check with a battery charger directly to starter. I got 150 for 3 cylinders and 170 for one. I got the swap for 1250 full swap out of a 99 si.so here is where I need some advise should I keep it and return it. I spun a bearing and left with out a car until I can find another legit motor. My old motor spun a main bearing.
