      That depends on if the valves are adjusted correctly, and on whether or not you test it correctly.

      What numbers did you get?

          Amount other things, proper testing means hold open the throttle while cranking. Might save you a little heart failure from a low set of numbers

            Engine at operating temperature, throttle held wide open, valves adjusted properly. If the engine has sat for a while the compression may be low until you exercise the beast a little.
