Na thats not high, I have a brand new stock short block. The manual calls for 156psi within 14 psi of eachother. It's possible that the head resurfacing might have upped the compression 4psi due to an extremely slight loss in head height, but I doubt it. Everything is just nice, new, and tight like a virgin.
