Crankcase pressure I just finished my v6 to v8 swap and drove my car for a short time. After about 30 minutes of normal driving i got into it and it runs like a champ. On my way back home it started huffing white smoke and i got very worried. When i got home i opened the hood and realized that the smoke was coming off my headers. My valve cover gasket blew out part of the way and the pcv tube on the passenger side was out of the valve cover as well. Any advice on how to help evac this pressure would be awesome.

the motor was fine when it was in my z. All i did to it was replace timing chain, water pump and put headers and exhaust on it. Then had it tuned. It runs strong and everything i will check everything today when i get a chance. I really hope i don't have to tear it apart. I am a poor college kid
