Nothing wrong with those numbers, :nice:
 
Ok thanks , was wondering cause I see some people and there b16b stock have like 235-240 Ish psi per cylinder , was wondering if I have good psi numbers , I have had Jdm itr 98+ spec engines and they were in the 260-270 psi range per cylinder , I do know tho the Itr and b16b have little diff comp ratings .... Itr 11:1 B16b 10:8 just wondering if my numbers are very common psi numbers ?
 
Nothing wrong with those at all. That's not to say the engine is healthy in all other aspects though
 
Beetle juice ... I pulled the cover and oil pan looks really clean , there isn't even any oil staining on the cam rails , cams and journals look real good as well no scoring ,

That's good news! Did you happen to check the oil pump pickup screen for debris while you were in there? If not it probably doesn't matter but it's always good to check.
 
No haven't checked the oil pump screen , but as added saftey deff plan on new water pump timing belt and tensior , and thinking of putting a "orbitz "upgraded oil pump in it ,
 
I'd recommend you leave the engine alone if it's running fine, not broken then don't fix it....
Looking for issues will create issues.
 
Can any of u guys reassure these as ctr cams off the 97 spec engine also
