360 v8 Compression check

Ah, no I didn't. It's dark now, so I can't retry it unfortunately.

Yes, that's the one. Can't see the compression ratio on the sheet, but I gather I should have had the throttle open which I didn't.

Dave

140 psi minimum @ 8.25:1 compression ratio

I'm sending it to you (e-mail) as a PDF file

No, don't have the equipment. The hose pipes are hard to the touch, so I think the radiator is holding a fair amount of pressure. No little bubbles in the coolant though - it's all quite clear.

Dave

That's what I would have expected. Will await your email ! Cheers,

Dave.

I've tried three times and I got a send failure message twice and once it was rejected by MY server...

I'm going to reboot and see if that clears anything up.
