Last winter I rebuilt the motor. Had the head completely redone. Cylinders 2,3, and 4 were fine. I reused the pistons and just reringed them. #1 required a new sleeve, piston etc. 2,3, and 4 are firecraters while #1 is that new stepped head piston. My compression on 2, 3, and 4 is 150psi hot while #1 gets up to 175psi. That seems high. It runs fine. Any concerns?
