Compression value for `88 MC

I had a problem finding these too.  I actually found them in a (cough)
Haynes manual.

Anyway don't recall exactly the numbers, but most importantly is more or
less uniform compression.  Since it is a low compression engine, new specs
would be 150PSI +/- 7.

115 or higher is still OK.  Again, a large deviation from the norm is not
good.  

I hope this helps, but I have copied the list, as my information may be
totally bogus, as this is from memory.

  I've searched the archives, and can't locate a value 
  to base readings on.  I am going to buy a donor car 
  and want to make sure the engine has full compression. 
  Thanks.
