Blown headgasket OR burnt rings?!?! check comp test.
ok here’s the deal..
i did a comp test i'll read comp from driver side to pass.
163psi
60psi
30psi, and after we stopped cranking.. it leaked.. to 0psi
120psi.
now i'm getting WHITE smoke out of my oil breather, and nothing out my exhaust.
also when i remove my oil cap i get the same smoke BUT not as much. the smoke out of the oil breather is thick.. and won't stop till i turn the car off.
what would yall say... burnt rings? or BLOWN head gasket?!?!

whats under your oil cap? any milky residue? If there is, is a headgasket/sleeve problem.
Redo the compression test, but this time pour a capful of oil in each cylinder. If the compression goes up, is your rings.

its your rings....i had the same problem took off the head my two center piston rings where gone. To see if it really is your rings...drop some oil and the pistons and then do another comp test. If your comp rises then it is your rings... goodluck
