If its got no compression on any cylinders, either your guage is goosed, or your engine is, I'm afraid :(

How soon can you take them off?

I'm currently playing with the existing heads - couple of rogue exhaust manifold studs to extract!

Not sure on the inlets yet, I'm not convinced they are ok.

The exhaust ones are as bent as bent though  :D
