I am wondering how big cams affect base compression. I am running 272 kelford cams and i have been told that the overlap on the cams could cause a low compression reading. anyone run into this ? and what should the compression be.

You just need to verify that the compression is roughly the same from cylinder to cylinder

a good healthy engine with stock HG should be about 150 or more with those cams.

i did some comparisons before. the ending result was -- if the number is similar across all 4 -- your good to go.

IMO those cams dont have enough overlap to really change anything over the stock cams. 10psi or less.
