i just rebuilt the engine on my 740 GL (B230) about 3 months ago.....last night i did a compression test just to make sure everything was ok. starting with #1 i got: 160, 160, 159, and 160 psi.MY QUESTION IS: is that the right/enough compression? i was very happy to see all the cylinders about the same psi! i checked 3 times and got the same numbers all 3 times.

any thoughts are appreciated!
thanks in advance!
