Ok felllas I just checked on my compression and I have 118 and 100..what’s my next move 🧐 

Ok fellas so I tore the head off and pistons look good as do cylinder walls 🙌..what I did find on my “recently rebuilt top end” was when I took the top of the carbs off to get them out of the way for head removal the side with 118 compression didn’t have a gasket under the cap (but was tight) and the side with 100 compression had a loose carb cap and the gasket was half on only. My guess was it ran it a bit lean to make rings wear faster?
