Default version 5 STI engine

v5 sti engine from my classic, has low compression on cylinder 1, has approx 71k miles, starts and runs but lumpy, no knocking or funny noises, was in the car when i bought it and heard it running, the head gaskets have been changed however still running lumpy thats all i know im afraid, not really sure what to ask, i think £300, if this is too high please let me know also if its too low please let me know thankyou
i also have the STI gearbox attached to the engine still that can be included for a price

It's got V3/4 inlet manifold and what looks like old style coil pack set up. So who knows but it's deffo not a V5 or 6 motor and deffo not worth £300.

Strip It down to its bare bones fella and sell it off in bits, you'll get more money that way.
