Interested in a motor for my car
#1 195 PSI

The engine seller has provided these compression test numbers which he said are low due to being taken when the motor was cold. I have to admit I'm a bit reluctant to pull the trigger on this motor yet without getting some of your impressions/feedback. My understanding is a new/healthy motor that is up to temp is about 220-240? So if these are indeed cold test numbers, what could I expect these to move up to hot? Does this motor appear to be a good one with these comp numbers? The seller did not provide leak down spec, he seems to be known/reputable on s2ki. There is no warranty, he purchases s2k's from auction and parts them out.
Thanks for your feedback
