Looks pretty darn good.  I don't think you have a compression problem.

OK, I did a compression test an hour ago with the following results: #1 -
145; #2 - 145; #3 - 155; #4 - 130; #5 - 155; #6 - 125. Looks to me like the
whole left bank is weak, with #s 2 & 4 being especially bad. Am I right? And
how bad? What does this say about the symptoms it's now exhibiting: running
very rough, stalling out at idle, oil pres/temp light on at near idle?
