What should the compression readings be on a 330 GT?  When should one begin to worry (how low)?

Hi Michael,

Any compression reading higher than 125 PSI is fine. How low can it go? Low compression will mean less power, so it depends how much power you can live with/without. Any lower, and you'll have to worry more about the smoke screen trailing behind the Ferrari, and everyone thinking you're driving James Bond's Aston Martin!
