Hello, I'm so sorry - way too many variables here to weigh in with intelligence. You purchased an engine and had it installed? New? Used? Remanufactured? Identical replacement? Have you brought your concerns to who did the work? Compression readings should never be less than 100 psi, and never more than 25% in variance from another cylinder measured. I'm concerned the engine procured is not proper for the vehicle, but there is so much unknown here that I can't possible guess. Seek the help of the engine installing technician, or another shop near you - check this link for other shops: www.repairpal.com/repair-shops
