Default low compression on 2 and 4

Big thankyou to stuart for sorting the legacy!! Cheers buddy the missus is very happy. But still looking for the part.

Other thing is the scoob has lost compression on 2 and 4.

Completely undecided what sort of rebuild to go for. Im not chasing big figures. Would like it to be sound but dont want it to happen again.

I undersatand that cosworth are a big thing at the mo but i cant justify spending 4.5k on a build for something ill never use.

Opinions more than wecome.
