Where do I stand?
I guys, this is my first post. I've been reading and learning for several months now, but I think it's time for some help.
I have an 88 p\u with a 22re bought about 6 months ago, 200k with a rebuild about 30k ago (or so I was told). Since picking it up I've givin it a basic tune up, new warn hubs, new front R axle, new injectors, heater core, brakes all the way around, and changed the tranny and diff fluids (they looked 20yrs old).
She is a gutless wonder so I was going to get the LCI EFI uprade kit with the bored out T-body, headers, cam and intake.
So last night I checked the compresion and got 124-126 in all four, no change with a little oil squirted in. I live at 7000ft, so I realize this will affect my reading. Im I within normal limits? Should I proced with the LCI kit? or am I nearing a rebuild? This is my DD and there is no money tree in my back yard.
Thanks in advance for you help

Its a 22RE, its a gutless wonder. But its reliable as heck. Not made to go fast but made to last. I have no clue what the EFI upgrade is but I wouldn't bother with it, nor the throttle body. Cam, exhaust and if you want, intake (look up deckplate mod).

The EFI upgrade kit, is acutally called EFI Power Package and its just the name for a Package that LCI sells that has a mild cam, header, T-body and intake.
