I'm running a hose from my oil vent in my valve cover to my carb to take care of some blow by, but can't figure out how to fix this proble.

The cam makes it idle pretty lumpy and I have a stock converter in place with my 350 tranny. My total timing is 36 degrees. Even with the high gears of 2:76, my 37 runs hard and it's pretty quick in the quarter at 103 with these gears, but after a run my engines is covered with oil.Keep smiling, it only hurts when you think it does!
