Well... First through third cylinders were solid, no leaking. Fourth... Another story, leaking 40%. Not good. Past the rings supposedly. When I originally was doing compression tests back when I first got the motor, I was getting lower numbers for the rear cylinder also. For example, my highest numbers the last time I checked it, I had 180 180 180 165psi front to back. I'll check it again soon here to see what it says now. Maybe this has something to do with why my car doesn't like running under 3krpm :^).
Anywho, that's kind of disappointing, but at the same time, it tells me that my car is/would be that much more powerful.
I changed the tranny fluid yesterday, getting the shifter back into the tranny took me WAY too long though. I took it out with the car in reverse, so it was a "bit" tougher than if it was in neutral. I finally got the car out of reverse with a screwdriver, and then it just dropped right in. I cleaned up my new Red/White/Red taillights and installed them, looks great! I will be test fitting my Momo wheel later today, I think with the 240 hub it will be a bit closer to me than the current wheel is(too much closer...). If it is too much closer, I'll look into grinding off a portion that sticks out if it'll make any difference. I'll do a little trim painting too, and maybe some other painting, we'll see how far I progress.
Peace!
