My current 340 with Edelbrock heads holds a ton of oil up top, its a guarantee that anytime I pull a valve cover oil gets on the headers. Is there any way I can help this or is it just the nature of the beast with these heads?
Any tips or tricks?

#6 external drainback lines to the pan.
You can restrict oil to the rockers. I probably would not do this with Cranes as there are no bearings.

This is what I would think also... just like doing a set of B-1 heads.... they hold a ton of oil
