So far, so good. Put a new set of Firestone Indy 500 tires on it - what a difference from the Goodyear race tires. Almost like driving a street car with power steering. I was amazed at the difference.

Car ran great, put still getting oil out the rear breather. Put a PCV intake on the driver side rear valve cover and ran a line in to the side of the turkey pan for the intake source. Tried running it with the rear goose neck still attached to see if it made any difference - appears it did not. Alos got some blow by on the passenger valve cover where the PCV breather was mounter.

So, will seal off the rear breather and try it with just the closed PCV system alone. If that doesn't work may resort to full breathers on both valve covers.
Thanks!
