Because when you’re down to 30psi compression and it’s around the rings, and especially when you’ve described everything you did, it’s hard to imagine that you have not trashed the rings and gouged the bores at this point.
There’s not a lot to do with an engine that has no compression before you tear it down.
Have you scoped the bores? You can buy a cheap endoscope for like $10 and you can drop it down a spark plug hole and look.
