found a nice pair in my area thnx

I wish it was that easy , I sold all my other parts to a buddy who has now moved far away so my plan is to keep it driveable and maybe look for a LD340 intake and a smaller carb like 650-670 ?I believe it has to be the intake swap , thnx

I have come to the conclusion to swap my aftermarket covers for oem stock or very close to that design ( mopar performance alloy finned )and run a breather with a drop tube on rt side ,stock vc has center mount ports well baffled inside to help stop vacuum pick up of oil being sloshed about I...

after 45 years in automotive repair I maintain the rt is passenger ,left is driver side basically standard shop theory , :)

why so ?

yes saw that Im going to look into that ,how far did you extend your baffle ?

sounds like a possibility , im currently just running a down tube from rt breather to behind the block , did you ever find out why or what causes this ?

yes just about last 1/2

pcv is on the left and breather on rt , if i put pcv on rt it sucks oil instantly to plugs and no starty :(

i see the jegs have hole at the front on one , mine have the front hole on the left side rear on the rt ,do want to reverse side my problems , like a dog chasing his tail !

i wonder if they interfere with the rocker arms ? and w hows you oil problems now ,do you run a pcv or breather on that cover ? thnx

yep engineers arent usually hot rodders ! or mechanics for that matter FYI my brother is an enginneer :)

assume you had same problem ? how is it working for you with extended baffle?

i suspect the intake is sucking it up somehow need to do a full leak test perhaps

yes its oil , there is a heavy flow inside rt valve cover ? not sure why or how thinking that it may be related to the recent intake swap ?? thnx FYI running a windage tray as well
