dumb question
My C2 has a NOM 350 with a lot of the original parts, heads Carter AFB etc. It has an after market Edlebrock manifold and chrome valve covers. There is a line with a PVC valve plugged into one of the valve covers. Seems as if the original owner is trying to run modern technology with some original parts. I want to remove the valve covers and put original covers on and just plug a screw into the manifold where the pvc line is run to the valve cover. Any thoughts?

Your engine needs to breath.
Keep it as is.

Currently, the valve covers have a filler on them, which I have a vented oil cap on. There is also a filler tube that comes out of the front of the intake which I have capped. The engine block is a 1969.

Then you can put on some vet valve covers or what ever you want.
