Default another. PCV way...

I have seen some excellent pcv hookups lately on the Barn, Here is what I did on a dual carb 8ba........ I ran two 3/8" copper lines to a Dorman pcv valve mounted at the road-draft-tube hole and capped the oil filler tube and installed my crankcase air intake at the former fuel pump mount........

Works well. see picture.

The pcv would work even better if you kept the air intake at the front. This allows fresh air across the top of the engine before entering the crank case towards the rear, per the design of the 8BA.
