166K gto ls2 compression results....
166K gto ls2 compression results.... I am no stranger to the boards here.. I lost my 99c5 with a iron 408 to a wall So I was looking for a new project and came across a nice clean 05 Gto M6 with highway miles for cheap The car appears to be taken good care of.
I am looking to do a budget build..I am a mechanic and will be doing all the work, I am looking to do Heads/cam/Exhaust/small spray..
Compression results came in at 175-180 Across the board on a cold ls2. All are very consistant.
1. I have looked for numbers to compare these results to.. Are these good numbers considering 166k is on the motor?
2. If Im willing to refresh everything, Is this a good motor still for a fairly reasonable Budget build?

I plan on atleast 500 with a modest shot of nitrous.. I was planning on doing new rod bolts and bearings but leaving the pistons themselves alone.
I do agree with the mileage on lifters and the timing chain will all be done allong with new heads..
