                Well, I got to the point
where I could check out the head gasket on the 6, and sure enough, the
DPO used the wrong one!!! So my intake/exhaust gasket was wrong, and so
is my head gasket. My compression in #6 is only 60PSI or so, so I am
suspecting at this point that my head gasket cut loose and that is why
my compression is low. Comments? 
   
Vance---There should be evidence around #6 as to why the cylinder
pressure was only at 60psi. A blown gasket should be visable, or one of
these two valves not closing/sealing? If you don't see anything, it
would warrant taking this piston out and checking it as a possible
cause. Something had to keep the test pressure from building.
