    My 83 single cab long bed is undergoing a long overdue rebuild, She hasn't ran reliably in years and has 121,000 miles total on her. I got it running with clean fuel before disassembly but just wouldn't idle at all.
    I'm planning a carb rebuild or weber swap and a swap the head for a freshly rebuilt one. I'm hoping these compression test results help verify that I don't need any bottom end work done. Whats your opinion? the results are from front to back
    1: 189
    2: 192
    3: 200
    4: 180

    I'm hoping these numbers come a bit closer together with a freshly rebuilt head, at least thats what i was told might happen. Anyone have any insight on the subject for a newby?
