What reading should I get on a Sprint compression test ?

I'd be grateful if anyone could let me know what would be a healthy reading for my 2000cc Sprint.

IIRC 160 is right for a good engine, but anything over 145 with even readings across the 4 cylinders should be OK. At least it was on my car and it seemed to pull OK to 110 before the dodgy suspension made me bottle it...<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

160-170 is what I've been getting. <br>

Thanks very much for your (speedy !) help.
