Default Re: Motor won't run

After work I went to a buddy of mine who has a 31 that we just completed a 12v conversation on. His car to has not ran in 30+ years. We completed the wiring and was able to start it for the first time. That being said I know I'm doing the timing right. My new concern is that his motor turns over considerably slower than mine. With my experience this is telling me that my compression is lower then his and may possibly be my problem. If I have a bad head gasket I may be leaking between cylinders causing the back firing through the intake.
