Results back from compression/leakdown...
So this is going to be my first 911 which I have looked forward to for many many years!!! It's a 1987 Cab with 105,000 miles on it...The car runs great...all original...only issue is cruise control does not work but everything else seemed to check out fine...
Compression / Leakdown results were:
Cyl 1: 190/3%
Cyl 2: 187/6%
Cyl 3: 189/5%
Cyl 4: 190/5%
Cyl 5: 190/6%
Cyl 6: 186/4%
I really value the opinions I read on this site as everyone on here is immeasurably more knowledgeable than I am about these kinds of things...I think those numbers are good...any opinions positive or negative would be greatly appreciated as I am leaining strongly towards making the offer this afternoon or tomorrow.

Those are great numbers; don't worry about those at all. Anything under 10% is really pretty good, and you don't have any big variations between cylinders. Don't worry about the engine now from that aspect.
