I just checked my cranking pressure with a compression gauge. And was shocked by the number (close to 300 pounds). The motor starts up fine without bucking. And seems to make good power, picked up 3+ mph over last years motor.
This years motor has 14.5 to 1 compression and 30 more degrees duration in the cam, than last years 12 to 1 motor.
Should I be worried about the high number?
