Could you post a pic? I don't have this issue but I have a short spacer for the passenger side breather. I guess your car is probably a lot quicker than mine though...what times you running?

I'm running a very similar setup, I hooked the valvecovers together with the back PCV locations, hooked the valley cover to the air hookup that normally runs to the TB and am running a metco breather. The metco sits in the stock filler neck, putting it up in the air more, so it's not as much a problem.

There really is not 100% solution to the problem unless you want to put a breather tank on the side and run a couple good sized hoses to it... a set of sheet metal valve covers with -AN fittings to a breather tank with a filter on that will solve the issue, but you're looking at alot of work to do that.

Keep the breather cleaned out, maybe try putting a stock filler neck on and put a breather into that so it's higher up.. with the setup like you're running I'm sure that there's oil that actually hits the breather itself, probably causing the problem.
