Venting pressure from the block?

So each valve cover has a hole, one for oil fill and the other for a PCV with hose to a port on the carb.
With a roots blower, can the PCV hose still go to the carb?
If it's turbocharged (blow through), should the hose go in front of the turbo inlet?
What about using the valve covers with just a filter (or 2) without using the PCV?
thanks.

or you could put an exhaust evac system on after thew O2sensor if you have 1.

The hose can go upstream of the turbo. With time though the oil droplets in the blow-by can foul the compressor wheel.

I'd be inclined to just use two breathers.

2 Breathers should look good.

Who cares what it looks like? You need funtion, you should install a catch container, you will need it.

I just bought 2 breathers but got the kind that will have a hose running from them....the kind that have a filter drip oil everywhere....

I've got a breather with the hose attachment. I simply pointed the outlet at the header a couple inches away.
The header has some smudgies on it but any blow by is quickly dissipated.

I have my PCV attached to the carb. Vacuum opens it and pressure shuts it. My car makes 15Hg at idle

For turbo I'd go with a line upstream to turbo with a catch can.
