My po rebuilt the 455 and turned it into a hot rod motor for real with all the eldelbrock goodies he could. He has a PVC valve on the right rocker cover and on the left is the old fashion oil breather cap with the heavy baffle screen in it just like an old street rod. When you get out after a trip you can smell oil. But no leaks to be found, I'm believing I smell the crankcase venting through the old style breather . Anyone out there with experience have any ideals if they think it would be ok to cap this breather and let the single pcv do it's job or try and put a second pcv in its place?
