Dave,
Not sure that plumbing a direct vent/suction line from your valve cover to y=
our intake manifold is a real good idea as you will be sucking in a lot of o=
il mist that will turn into carbon deposits. Ask me how I know. I would look=
 into some kind of catch tank between the intake and valve cover.
