Compression test on 318

[Paul Lennemann <pjlenn@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've had some folks suggest that the only way to get a true idea on the 
comprssion in this thing is to get it started and run it for a few 
minutes.  For now it's just sitting on a pallet.  I'd have to make some 
kind of stand ( maybe like Don D's that he made out of 2 x 10's).  I 
have everything needed to get it running though.  The other 
consideration is, is it worth it?  I have the poly and matching 727 that 
are taking up room in my garage.  I thought I'd keep them for a future 
project but I need to finish my current project first and that may take 
a couple of years.  An LA 318 or 360 would probably be bettter SB 
choices for any other project I might eventually start.  I really have 
no idea what the 318 & 727 are worth, maybe $200 if the engine is 
"unhurt".  I'd also be happy to trade them for 65 non-tapered rear end.  
Or even a standard mid 70's Mopar front disc brake setup.


Thanks for the input, Paul L.
