Well guys I got my new tool, a 10mm to 14mm compression checker adapter. Did a compression test on my freshly reguilt engine. Guess what? NO compression---zero, zilch. So I removed the engine AGAIN. Pulled the head and took a look at the valves. Looky, Looky what no cookie. guess what I saw.

Tada:
Here's a shot up the ol' exhaust port. Guess I shouldn't be able to see daylight between the valve and seat! Valve end is definately bent. Gonna buy a new set of valves, reassemble and try it again.
