low compression isn't a bad thing think anout it u save money on gas and running race gas will add up to a lot in time. I live in SD too and have all the tools except for the flywheel puller. I've never done a lower end on a banshee and plan on doing mine after this season, but if u want i could help u and it will be a learning experience with the manual. Just an idea thought i would run it by ya.
