Is your compression tester capable to handle1000psi, your standard car tester will not handle it........
Snapon may charge as much for the adapter as these guys do for the whole setup.

Well your tester may do the job as required........but the compression is up around 500 for most engines with under 200K on them. If your quoting the Ford shop manual numbers they are lower than actual readings.
If your handy with a welder try making an adapter from an old GP..... or the 5.7 Chebby adapter will work.........
