Motors screwed
 
So I did a compression test and cylinder #2 is a 30psi

So going to end up doing a rebuild if possible, will be over a period of time due to low funds.

Thinking its going to be a pretty stock rebuild maybe do a lumpy cam if I can get away with it

Any other suggestions ? What cam I can use and such (I'm not experienced with motors but gotta start somewhere)

Any knowledge is great appreciated thank you !

Sorry to hear about this. Hope all works out. You can do your thing now tho

Just curious why one cylinder is low on compression. Could it just be stuck rings. I would try Risolone and drive it to see if that doesn't improve compression. Also you could pull just that #2 piston and re ring it.
