blown head gasket?
 
wandering if any one has heard of maybe a crack in the block doing any of these things: (or if it is definately a head gasket)

quite a bit of oil in water
a decent hole in the radiator (that the water coming from isn't hot when the car gets up to running speed)
runs a little hot while having water but doesn't overheat
compressions of 150 150 140 and 150 respectively
but no water in the oil is visable
and the car seem to not have lost any power
really trying to know what it is before i start doing alot of stuff that won't help, u guys know how it is lol
all advise apreciated

Hmmm... Strange. I've never heard of oil in the water. It would have to be a head gasket or cracked head or a slight chance of a cracked block.

yeah the compression test has me confused though and the fact that it is only oil in water and not the other way around
