I dont know the engine but there is a crankcase vent in the block by the distributor. Ventilation on supercharged engines should not be anymore necessary than a normally aspirated engine. Alternatives are to place breathers in the valve covers with tubes connected to a remote can I used the frame as part of the system. No oil on the track. .

I made up a stainless hardline from the base of the rear carb to the PCV valve in the rear of driver side rocker cover and ran a 5/8" hose to a puke tank with a breather on the pass side cover.....

WHY DO YOU HAVE A PUCK TANK?iS IT TO COLLECT THE OIL THAT MIGHT GET SUCKED UP THE TUBE.WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO WAS THE GET A PVC BREATHER AND GUT IT OUT AND RUN A HOSE FROM IT TO THE BACK OF THE CARB.

Under boost and no vacuum at the PCV, crankcase pressure can build and blow oil mist out the breather. The puke tank collects the mess.....
