for bad compression it could be bad carbon build up around the apex seals

If it is carbon buildup you could do the ATF treatment or it may be a blown engine which would require a complete teardown and rebuild of the block. If you are going to rebuild it you might want to go with a port job since the only time you can do that is when the engine is apart.
