CO Co compression tester?

Anyone in Co have a compression tester I could borrow in a couple weeks time? Recently accuaried a non running FB (still debating what all to do with it) that I should be picking up sometime around the 13th (tenative) and curious how healthy the motor is in it. That and the fact that Ive never tested the compression in my race car so figured I could kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

For those interested heres the ideas I have for newest car (81)

A) Store and use for parts as needed on current racecar
B) Transfer go-fast bits from current car and turn into new racecar as this one has straight body vs my dented one (including new cage as mine as seen several hard hits over the decades)
C) Convert into new S7 and have as backup/rental
D) Convert into chumpcar racecar (unlikley due to straight body)
E) Highly unlikley but get running and use as a 3rd possible DD (already have a Miata and a truck and definatly not in the mood to fight emissions on it)

I'd like to know as well, I have a full TII swap siting in my shed. It would be nice to see compression numbers.
