Default pcv question

If I get a valve cover breather with a built in pcv, can I run the hose to the back of my Holley? I`m not using the large port as I have manual brakes.

they tend to suck oil trough the breathers in the valve covers.

Dan

where do you have yours? my engine is a CVMS one as well with the ali valley pan, so no place to put the pcv.

I have tried having it in the butler valley pan ,it sucked oil . I tried the new and so called improved butler valley pan and it suck oil . Than I tried it in the valve cover and it sucked oil . I than bought a set of low profile butler valve covers and a mopar breather with a hose to the air filter and I have no more problems with crank case pressure or burning oil through pcv . I have no oil in the hose to the air filter either . It works great and put a block off in the pcv hose leaving it installed in the valley pan
