Welcome to the forum!

The compression should be 400psi per cylinder when new. It can run with a lot less than that (200's so I am told) and still run although there will be a lot of smoking due to improper combustion. Make sure you have the valves adjusted before you do the compression to make sure it's accurate.

Good Luck
