Title: Engine Compression

Does anybody know what the engine compression (not the compression ratio) was for a new, stock, 1936 flathead 6 engine (201.3 cu in, CR 6.7:1, 82 HP)?

I have not seen it for the P1 or P2, but the number for the PJ (same displacement and compression ratio) is 114 at cranking speed. See:
