1965 Dream

[MARG]

Hi Guys,
I have a stock 1965 Dream 6000 miles everything is fine and it runs strong and does not smoke. The compression is 60PSI dry and when I oil the pistons it will jump to 90PSI. My gauge is OK but this seems low to me although it runs fine and strong with no complaints. What should I expect the compression to be? Thanks in advance. Glen

Should be more than that, I think, but if it runs fine that is a better measure.......
