Excellent. How many miles on the car? Original or rebuilt engine?

Sounds almost too good to be true, but if true those are excellent numbers.

I just had mine done. They did them while the engine was cold. They mentioned that numbers done on a warm engine are generally better. Either way, those seem incredible. Whats your secret? What kind of oil and gas are you using?

Very good numbers, as a recommendation always ask for the spark plugs.
