Yeah, compression test didn't look good at all

Took it apart today and noticed that the #8 & #4 intake pushrods weren't even in the holes to the lifters!

I ended up putting in the 6.1 intake and exhaust pushrods on both sides. I started it up and it purrs. I drove it for a while and everything is smooth. Thanks guys

Glad you got it sorted...how's it roll with the 6.1 intake?

Sorry it was misleading...both intake and exhaust pushrods, not the actual 6.1 intake manifold. On that topic though, I've heard that it loses a little low end or I'd probably try to find one.
