Compression test only at 90 psi max, timing chain off?

And the cam and crank dots face each other, NOT at 12 and 12. It doesnt make any differance though, if you set the cam at 12 o clock and the crank at 12, turn it one crank revolution, and they will be lined up.. I would check pushrod length first, and check your compression gauge in a known good engine before tearing anything back apart..
