Well here is the deal i am currently running a breather on my car and their is no baffle under the valve cover for clearance of the roller rockers. I get a ton of oil dripping from the breather all over valve cover, header, and even throttle body. I finnally found a breather that is shielded and it is on the way, but if this doesnt solve the problem does anyone have any suuggestions on what I could do? I dont have the tube hooked up from the tb to the valve cover either do to lots of oil being sucked up.

Have you seen those Stef's catchcans with the breaters on top. Some people run one of those from the pcv hole in the rear of the intake.

Like the ones they have in summit? Take the pvc to that, and use no breather anywhere else at all?

Can you run a breather on the other side?? Also, do you have the pcv valve hooked up into the back of the intake?? Might try and run a breather right from the back of the intake. Another way you could reduce crankcase pressure is to install a crankcase evac system into the rear of the intake. you basically weld in 2 bungs into you exhaust sytem right after the collector, and install 2 one way check valves( smog pump check valves). then you plumb the check valves into you crankcase. This basically uses the negative exhaust pulses of your exhaust to draw crankcase pressure out... kinda complicated, but it does work.

Yeah like the ones in summit. No pcv valve. Basically what Miles mentioned but you would have a can so oil wouldn't be dripping. The pcv hole is quite a bit smaller than the filler neck though. Maybe just look into some different valve covers.
