Default breather/vent location options SBC

for 35 plus years I have installed "breathers" in each valve cover and of course, some valve covers accommodate and seal better than others but overall, that set up is mostly what you see on sportsmen drag race builds.

So in a quest for options, I have the idea of putting two AN fittings in the "valley area" of the intake then using hoses to a remote breather tank. In doing so, there would be no openings in the valve cover. Oil fill would be some kind of threaded bung somewhere on the intake.

Of course we are talking about an intake that allows access to the valley area. [example, a Super Victor style intake]

Let me have your thoughts about this idea.
