Intermittent crankcase pressure issues

This is not an oil-pressure issue.
IMO; It's a drainback issue at high rpm with the car not sitting level and maybe being tossed around from side to side. The HV pump moves a lotta oil
Ain't trying to be contrary.... the HV pump CAN push 18-20% more oil than standard.... into an open system with no restrictions.... which an engine is not. Once the pressure relief limits the pressure, then the flow into the engine is not set by the pump's potential volume. It is set by the pressure at the back of the passenger side gallery (the main feed point to everything) and the pressure. Once either pump limits pressure at mid RPM's, then the flow is the same between the 2 unless the relief springs are different.

I just don't want the OP to change oil pumps for no change.

Drain-back is another matter and crank aeration. That may well be the issue. I just want to investigate the cylinder sealing simply as the OP's engine symptoms are classic for poor ring sealing.

The suggested tests seem pretty darned good.
