it will be noticeably easier to compress/extend. Might also see where it has leaked the oil from inside.

its much easier to compress then the other three even after playing with the knob.. and you can fully compress which you cannot in the others
its not easy to extend though and does rebound slower then the others (thats not what she said )
sh#$ seems done to me

I have a Barracuda, but mine is a little less done.... And has to live with a mild 425hp small block.

A little less done?? That line suggests that it might be running someday. Right now, the engine is on a stand in the garage, and the car is in the garage, in the house, and across several patios.
