This is very true. The sbc in my truck now is set up for a good bit of nitrous and my machinist suggested I run a vacuum pump. The truck is street driven so I did not use one. It blows oil out EVERYWHERE except the rear main seal. I've tried PCV's and they didn't help (I didn't try a low vacuum one tho). Seems to do best with free flowing breathers and limited baffles but the breathers get oil soaked fast. I am planning to use one of the electric vacuum pumps off the old caddy's to try and sort it out.
