No power help

I cleaned my 5th and 6th ports,Replaced the PD with a banjo bolt,Installed injectors that I cleaned with carb cleaner.Used new gaskets on the lim and uim.The car will not produce power.It won't idel too good either.I have new injectors on the way,also new O2 sensor.Could my problem be a vac leak?Blown motor?I did a compression test I got a reading of 30,30,30 both rotors.I rev the motor and it kinda misses.I replaced plugs and wires,regrounded the engine and secondary injectors.I try to take off in first and it has no power at all???The car is a 86fc n/a

if so, rebuild time, maybe you apex seals are intact tho, them it wont be as bad

btw try soaking the engine in atf or mmo first

when I did the comp test I had to hold open the release valve on the tester.The tester is for a piston motor.I did leave the valve close for a reading on one side of one rotor and got a reading of 100psi.I have done the atf trick also.
