Default Compression test cost?
I called the local GM dealership and they quoted me $350 for just a compression test. That seems a bit high? What does this test usually cost on a fbody?

If you want to do it yourself you can buy the compression test kit cheap at harbor freight. $350 is crazy.

If they charge 3 hours to do plugs that sounds about right, since thats what a compression test would require. I'd only charge about 2....
