Again, the original poster is asking what sort of penalty he should assess to performance charts based on compression testing results indicating in the low 70's. Plain and simple answer is none. A determination of actual ring leakage during engine operation cannot be made from static testing. I refer you to the TCM testing wherein rated horsepower was obtained during engine operation that failed static compression testing!
