Default Blowing blue smoke.

I'd ask a DSM forum but they're all too busy trying to fix their own s' to try to help me with mine.

1990 Eclipse GSX 129.5k miles
Evo III 16g (1000 miles on it)
New Head 04/02/98 @ 44681 miles
10w30 Royal Purple changed every 2k miles
NEVER ran a boost controller, it's been at stock or below stock boost its whole life (currently 9psi).
Oil dipstick is not crushed and does not blow out.

Leakdown test results at 100psi (possibly more, lost my gauge and had to use a cheapo one to measure psi):
Cyl #1: 13%
Cyl #2: 8%
Cyl #3: 13%
Cyl #4: 8%


She's been blowing a little smoke but as of late, it's gotten a lot worse. Doesn't do it on decel or a whole hell of a lot during accel. but it is visible to the people behind me during acceleration. When I rev the car up back to back to back, it's not bad, when I let it idle for a minute and rev it once, it bellows it out.

Sound like valve stem seals to everybody else or are there more question you want to ask me?
