compression

Just did my compression test and all 4 cylinders were in the 115 to 120 range. I'm going to assume that those are good numbers for '75 Spider, but can't find a reference.
Can someone confirm for me? Appreciate it.

yes, those numbers are very normal. I would like to see 150. but i have tested hundreds of fiat engines and a 8.0-1 1800 that is not new will test about 125+/-, the biggest thing is the numbers are even.
