Everybody is going to tell you that there is no hard number for compression and that the cylinders should be within 10-15% of each other and that is true, but:

If you have 100 psi or greater, it's a healthy engine.
Less than 90 and it's getting tired.

Those big V6s are still healthy with even psi over about 70.
