Re: PCV vs EVac
Evac. I don't see why you 'd want to put blowby into the intake.

Re: PCV vs EVac
Crankcase vacuum.
Actually, you need both. One breather goes to back of carb. The other goes to a Y and to both collector probes. Now you've got suction at all times, one way or the other. If it really works good , you can turn the seals around on the crank ;-) All you need then , is a crankcase vacuum port and a gauge. That gives you something else to look at in the lights :-)

Re: PCV vs EVac
For years I had a separator in the vacuum line between the carb and valve cover of my Cleveland. I've never had to drain any oil out of it.

I'll take a controlled vacuum leak anyway I can, in a limited induction class...That goes for choke heat passages and hot idle compensators too ;-)

Re: PCV vs EVac
So when I had my carburetor car...I had a idea to create as many vacum leaks as possible, and jet up to compensate, the engine would run like it had a bigger carb. I was told NO...they will check for that.
