Re: how much is too much
yeap from what I've been told the best way is to do a compression test and if you pick up a haynes manual it will tell you what your compression should be

Re: how much is too much
well see my problem is not compression. i had water in my cylinders. i took the head off, looked at the head gasket and it didnt look like anything is wrong. and the head isnt warped. and nothing is cracked or broken on the block or head. now the water pump is gone, could that cause water in the cylinders? or could it just be the head gasket even though it doesnt look like anything was wrong with it?

Re: how much is too much
You know what? It would probably just be cheaper and less of a pain to find a used GA16(complete) and swap it in. I'm sure you could find one for about $300 somewhere online, and have it swapped in for less than $1000. Then, bam, new engine, and that good feeling of knowing that everything is fixed.

Re: how much is too much
yeah, or find a JDM engine supplier. If you can find an SR20 for $300-500, I'm sure it wouldn't be much different for a GA.
