[T3] Compression Test Method


Now that I have decided to rebuild my 71 Fasty engine for my 66 Square, I 
would like to do a baseline compression test before tearing it down.  The 
engine is out of the car and is basically just a long block.   What are the 
chances of getting a good compression test if I use an impact wrench on the 
crankshaft gland nut to spin the engine over?  Anybody have any other ideas 
short of putting it back in a car and using teh starter........btw, I do not 
have this means at this time.

Thanks,
