Evaluation compression - is it the one? I want it.

Deliberating a mid 70s 911
3.2 transplant:compression 1/150, 2/175, 3/175 4/166 5/170 6/170
with a leak down result of 35% on cylinder 1
No rust. No leaks.
Given the caveat that numerous variables can affect compression, should these numbers cause concern? The leak down can (I'm told) be corrected with valve adjustment and valve cover gaskets.

I am on the cusp, 911 gravity is pulling me in, I don't think I can be stopped...
Is there logic that can stop me?
