hittintrees srh Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 A friend and i just rebuilt the top end on his shee after it had been sitting for about a year. And it went PERFECT!! fired on second kick..... My question is, when should we check the compression? Can i do it now, or should it be broken in completely.. P.S. for everyone doing a rebuild, the search engine is hella helpfull!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
differentstrokes Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 I would check the compression now, you might have something little turn into something big if you wait to long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastcar01 Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 From my experiance it does not change very much after break in, maybee a few PSI. I agreee with above, check it now and you have a baseline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
