Can I bypass the Crankcase vent to throttle body like this??

Can I just get a breather cap from the zone or something and bypass the Crank Case vent on the PASSANGER side of the engine on a 305tpi without problems? And just plug off the Throttle Body connector for the hose? Cause my elbow at the valve cover is all old and what not and i couldnt find a replacement. Unless someone knows where I can get a new replacement, can I just bypass it like this?

I really don't know what you are asking but the only two ways to do this is to put a breather in the place of it on the valve cover and plug the TB or keep the PCV in there and route it to the TB or a canister can then to the TB. The canister can will soak up the oil going through the hose.

You just answered the question exactly as I needed.

Ok good....however, I have not seen a performance difference using either of these....they work the same except for one just keeps the oil from going into the intake runners more.
