vacuum is related to compression, vacuum will also be low until the apex seals have fully seated which usually takes 500+ miles.

Phew, thanks for the reply. I'm sweating a little less now. Thought maybe I missed something, though I was pretty careful with checking and double checking everything.

12-13. before the rebuild, it was around 16. Does that sound pretty normal?

Thanks for the info. I'm gonna try to check it out. I used to meet up with the sac7's when they would get together a couple years ago. Looks like this will be a big turnout.
