my wifes vic has the same symptoms, great looking plugs but smokes like a motha after long idles and start ups, i just figured it was the valve seals but you said you replaced them and now i see you got the same thing and your compression test is good, could it possibly be the rings? i hope not as i was just planning on putting some pi heads on it to fix the seal problem.

im sorry it was the pcv you replaced, thought you said valve seals, yes we replaced ours about a year ago as well, so then it probably is the valve seals imo
