Default b16a2 good compression with a leaking head gasket.

just did a compression test on my 99 civic si b16a2 with a leaking head gasket. numbers came out 200-199-200-195. i did the comp test correctly 3 times. same numbers. did not drop oil in the cylinders though.

i thought the compression was supposed to be uneven or low if i had a leaking head gasket? head gasket is leaking and losing about a quart of oil every 900-1000 miles, no overheating, and burns a little smoke on startup and early morning cold idles. no oil in coolant either.

gonna pick up some arp studs and a new oem head gasket wednesday before slapping the t3/t4 on. any feedback with the comp numbers and head gasket leak would be greatly appreciated.
