minor update.

disconnected the pcv and put another breather on, (cheap mr. gasket). went driving to put some miles on it to see what's up.

came back, and the breather is gone! blew the sucker right off! luckily, as far as i can see, it didn't damage anything, just fell off and rolled down the road i guess.

it didn't fit as tightly as the other one, and i did wonder about it, but i decided it would probably be fine.

splattering of oil around the tube in the valve cover and the under side of the hood. what worries me more is that there is oil on the valve cover around the other breather.

i really don't want to go with an evacuation pump. there are plenty of big inch motors out there, i just have to find the setup that is going to work for me.

bad news though, i still went through a quart in 150-200 miles....
