Anyone know what compression per cylinder should be

For cummins isb I'm just wondering

 

[Evan A. Beck]

Typically between 420 and 450 psi, with 8-10 revs.

Evan, Check this site out. About the third or fourth slide down, it says compression is 2200-2500. What are they talking about?

those cylinder pressures are with the fuel being burned/exploded in the combustion chamber...
