Ok I have just finished my "budget" build 496.
My problem is that I ordered a Midwest Hurricane Intake Manifold without any ports for all my vacuum stuff. So I have NO PCV system right now.
So I thought I would improvise and just put 2 breathers in each valve cover. Well the motor runs like a raped ape 11.2 the first pass, and 10.9 the last. But on my return trip to the pits I had pushed a lot of oil out the right side of the motor through the breathers(about 2 cap fulls of oil), and it was burning off the headers.

So I am now paying for bad planning.
I have had some cirlce track guys tell me to get new valve covers with the tubes that extend the breather about 4 inches off the valve cover itself.

I have also been told to yank the intake off and have it drilled and tapped to install a new port. Well that just doesnt sit well with me....I know there is someone out there that has an easier fix than that.
I have my brake booster running off the vacuum port on the carb base plate. All i need is a way to get that crankcase to vent without puking oil everywhere, and to save my gaskets from getting pushed out from all that unvented gas.
PLEASE HELP!
thanks
