Default RE: Does high temperatures bring back engine compression?

I would accept 300deg when I was pushing it hard in a race, but not under any other circumstances, and if it went to 310, I'd do something about it immediately. Personally I don't have such an issue with high temperatures as most people, these engines run ok up to about 290, but after that you're in the danger zone, and reducing their useful life dramatically.
