Make sure to get an overdrive tranny... and make sure your differential mount is in good shape.

I don't think that low compression affects starting much.. mine has 80-80-90 on one and 0-0-0 on the other... and starts instantly

well in some circumstances ..... hard starting may be the effect of low compression...
