Should be able to tell if the comp is good simply by turning it over by hand using a socket on the flywheel.
You will get that lovely suck and spin over as it compresses each stroke.

Re: well im bleeding gutted this morning gsxr 400 gk76a
this job get worse put head back on today is bloody perfect no valve leakes with petrol test purge the bores with pressure from compressor and get what the inlet valves r leaking air (not a happy bunny ) so started on another head i have but ive a good mind to put the old head back on and dont even decarbon it
do leak test again on this next week and try again
these valves from what i have read seem to self sealing when the bike is running in its first few minutes from the verry minute ridges you can see under the magnifier i have but how can ya get a bike to start when you cant even keep a seal
dont think their is a problem with new ring i put in but might change them for the imd rings i have new
KNEW I SHOULD HAVE JUST CHUCKED THIS ENGINE AWAY AND BOUGHT A HONDA TO SLOT IN lol
