What do you mean Wet and Dry Test? Dropped oil in the cylinder? If thats what you meant, just having a blown HG wouldnt bump your compression.

Yeah wet test as in a squirt of oil in the cylinder. I thought they were called dry/wet. You're saying the head gasket should be fine? 125 seems awfully low

I'm saying a blown HG is the least of your worries. When you drop oil in the cylinder, it doesnt seal up the HG, just the rings. So just the fact that it bumped up means its sealing the rings.

Disconnect the crankcase hose to the T on the valvecover...I got a feeling you got some smoke coming out of there, or atleast got air pulsating out. That means air is getting thru the rings and pressurizing your crankcase...that means rebuild time.
