    had 80 psi of compression on cylinder 3, the rest hat 120+

    24hr is so much better!!! I used to go to LVAC until I told the manager there to kiss my black a$$... They wouldn't let me back in, go figure...

    Nice work. How did you burned an exhaust valve? Are you running too lean?

    im not sure. ive had a misfire on cyl 3 (and 1) for a long time. my guess is too much timing or just lean.. im also 90% sure i had this problem on the dyno. (i know for a fact that cyl was misfiring) and the car still made 412

    Good. Hope you'll find your issue before burning an other one. Good luck.

    Re: i found my compression problem

    Ya, i have an LVAC, (new flamingo is close to my house) and golds membership. I prefer golds, but lvac is much easier to goto. I haven't had a problem yet, but heard of LVAC being douches about stupid shit.
