Ok, update number 4312, haha. I put motor oil in the cylinder and threw the compression tester in. came out with 145psi. SO to me that says because of the wrong ends on my rings and the huge end gap that if i get the correct ones my compression should improve greatly. and it sputtered and blow out some blue smoke when i put oil and the plug in and turned over. Seems like a good sign to me.

Thanks for everyones input and help again! I’ll update once i receive the new rings.
