Try putting some 30 weight oil in the plug holes of the cylinders with no pressure,replace the plugs and crank the engine a bit again and let it sit for a while. Recheck the pressure. Valves could be sticking. We had a similar situation on a 36 business coupe with an 8 cylinder. Three cylinder registered no pressure but after putting in a bit of oil they all came back within 20 pounds of each other. Worth a try.
