Results of Compression Test:.......

Well, I have finally got around to doing a compression test on the engine. All cylinders range from 180-190 psi of compression. Is this ok? The actual engine has 170k on it lol, I know that is a lot, but that is what I have. I noticed that Bags533 is getting 160-165. Why are my numbers higher? I even used the same compression test tool as he did. Anyone know these numbers?

Erik, 185 psi is the standard. 14 psi diff between cylinders is the max allowable.
