I'm about to take off oil pan and cylinder head here in a few minutes, I'll let you guys know what's up when I'm done. Thanks for the insight everyone.
if you have spark, its not a broken camshaft, and that pretty much rules out a broken crank too. (i have had a crank break before between main journals, cyl 3&4 would go up and down, but the other two wouldnt. was cool as shit
)
my bet is going to be either burnt valve(s), bent valve(s) or its out of time. although.....i have had a stopped up convertor cause no compression before. no air out=no air in, no compression ability. took me a few hours to figure that one out!
i am curious myself as to what the cause is. let us know.

lol, sounds dumb but make sure the tools you have work first.
use your ears. an engine with no compression is easy to hear.
