Proper PCV arrangment for a 2L, A little help please Options

[North Coast Jim]

Have a newly rebuilt 2L in the car with 40 IDF Weber carbs which is running fine except for a RMS dripping oil. We believe we installed it correctly and took careful steps assembling the rest of the engine/flywheel/clutch/transmission. We believe that the crankcase vent system is not working properly which is pressurizing the crankcase as RPM builds, thereby pushing oil out the RMS.

My oil fill assy has a 022115542 PCV assy in it and a solid oil fill cap. I took the valve out to see if it was working. When I blow into the bottom it is initially open. Increased pressure it closes the valve. Seems backward to me. My oil fill tower has no vent in it.

I do know that when I got this motor, 6 years ago, the PCV assy was in pieces all captured in the oil fill assy. I took it out and reassembled it thinking it was correct. Maybe not ??

I have Len Hoffman heads when he sold them direct and the vents are capped shut per his instructions.

Any help is appreciated.

And then...

A vacuum vented PCV system REALLY needs a plenum where all 4 cylinders are connected as ITB set ups usually have poor low speed vacuum.

It's the same reason a MAP sensor does not have the resolution to function properly below 2k RPM on an ITB set up.

Now, the HATED progressive 2bbl WOULD allow a vacuum PCV but...
