Cool! For a motor with radical cams and lots of valve overlap, compression in psi might be hard to estimate. Maybe try a leakdown test instead?

Do you mind if I ask who drove the car in '89? I have a GTU 911 from that era (blue #96 driven by Fred Apgar) as well.

By the way, intakes full of oil is strange. It could be that the owner dumped some oil down the intakes before putting the car away as a preservative.
