As suggested, I used the worksheet from Ed at "Just Brits" to document my 
compression results.  It is attached as an Excel file.  As mentioned earlier, 
it is a 1959 AN5L 9C-U-H 948, and has smoked since being rebuilt by a local 
mechanic (hack?) five years ago and only has about 5000 miles on the rebuild.  
Looking at the numbers, does it appear I need to do cylinder work?  Head work?  
Just honing and rings?  More than that?  Suggestions are appreciated and I plan 
to do the work myself this time - that way it will be done right!
