I needed to check the compressions of the supercharged race car last week while we were prepping it for the upcoming hill climb. As the ring gear is in the Colin Chapman weight saving bin & the little blower is driven off the nose of the crank, I pulled the 4 plugs out, then jacked up one rear wheel and wrapped a length of belting around it. The blower wasn't connected to the intake as yet, so no worry about throttle opening. 4 Good pulls and all 4 showed 60+ Psi
