help with smoke

I have 2000 powerstroke im working on for a buddy. The truck was smoking so i did a contribution test on it and it showed cyl. 3 and 7. I changed the 2 injectors and it didnt seem to help and the same codes came back up so since they was remans i had 2 like new ones i changed back out and seem to help. doesnt smoke nearly as bad but the cyl 3 is still coming up on test. The smoke is whiteish gray just like an injector is bad. The question is what should the compression be on each cyl. I think that might be something i need to check. any other ideas would be great help. The truck was missing but now it doesnt seem to be thats why im thinking commpression.
