ray,
Regarding you low compression- How do you know that it is not your CYLINDER BORE that is excessively worn, tapered, or out of round (or all of the above)? That can only be determined with precise measurements. If so, (only) installing new rings will have minimal to no effect and only serves to lighten your wallet.

I have a broken ring and the cylinder and bore seem to be in good shape.

OK- With a broken ring it's a given you need new rings, however, it may need MORE than that. Now is the time to have the bore measured. When you say "the bore SEEM to be in good shape" I am assuming you mean that you see no visible scoring, correct? That is certainly good news, but only PART of the story...
