It is used to power my BSMeter, which is now pegging after reading your posts...

+1 to Pete's diatribe. Run a PCV valve Duane.

Yeah, I'm gonna just run it through one of the vc grommets.

I bought oil filler/breather caps to match my new valve covers. Well, they came in and are identical. There is no pcv outlet on either one but both caps are baffled/breathable. Anybody running this style of cap on both sides with no pcv hookup to the carb? Any problems? I'm planning on getting a pcv cap for proper ventilation but figured I'd throw this out and see if there are differing opinions.

Not running a pvc system of some type will probabily cause trouble later, The windage pressure created from crank can blow out seals on the crank ends or intake valley areas.

I rigged up my own hook up point on my Strip Dom intake so I can use the matching cover caps. They are the vented type breather with built in filter.
It pulls a good vac off idle to keep the crankcase from building pressure.
