That car should go 12's no problem.

Here's the correct fix for the Holley intake pulling oil, as I already went through it.

You need to take the PCV valve off that ugly Holley supplied tree and tap and add a pipe nipple to the intake tube(I have pic's if you need them, send me a message to Rick91GT@onemain.com) the metal tube on my 76mm C&L was great I used the boss that they put in for the N20. Then the PCV will pull vac at idle since the butter fly is open and it will drop out at WOT. Works perfect and solved all my oil issues.

I think the 30# are fine, I am getting ready to upgrade to a set of 30's myself. Mine goes lean up top, and increasing the pressure is a joke as the computer will reset it back to the factory setting.

I have a fairly simple combo and my 8.8:1 compression 302ci motor should go 11's all motor. That B-cam is holding you back, I would look at getting a custom cam or atleast a differnt off the self grind. I am very happy with my AFM cam, it made a world of difference to my combo, but it does require fly cutting it's a big one

Now as far as the breather goes, I have tried both the open and closed systems and it runs better with the closed system on my car. I currently have Fabbricated Alum valve covers that have -10AN fittings, I run braided hose off each one to a Steph's Breather tank and a closed breather on top, my car runs better then ever. Now that set-up is pricey Steph's are $69 each and the covers are $250 then the AN fittings and braided hose will run you another $100+ but it looks and works very well on mine. I think a set-up like the stock one would work just as good but I needed to replace the leaky Comp Polymers I had and went to this combo. The problem with the K&N is it will get dirty very quickly and that will cause it not to breath good and will kill performance, mine never spit oil at high rpms onto the header (thank god my engine bay is getting cleaner eery week) but it did get dirty fast and that got old constantly cleaning it.
