Wouldn't a simple compression test be easier than sticking something down the intake in this case?

Wouldn't it be possible for there to still be some damage but yet run good compression numbers?
My thought is if the pistons kissed the valves in any way they'd be bent and wouldn't allow for very good compression at all if he previously had good compression. [/b][/quote]
I wasn't sure if there was any sort of tolerance built in for valve damage = lower compression.
