If it is running well leave it alone, 190 is fine ,allowing for slight
innaccuracies in Bourdn tube pressure guages you should be in good
shape. I have seen a few GOOD non carboned engines with pressure in this
range. More importantly they are EVEN from side to side.
You have an excellent ring seal , Good valve to seat contact and a
guage that may be reading right on the money to a few pouds high. The
side to side readings are real good and if the engine shows no signs og
the kind of problems already mentioned regarding knocking etc,it is best
to enjoy !

Is that the single malt talking or just another cheap WHINE ?
