PCV and vac. lines, where does it go?????

The car did come with the stock EFI harness so I do have the TFI unit and it is plugged into the distributor. Also, I called my Edelbrock guy and he verified for me that my heads do have the passages already machined in so I do not have to remove them. He did say to check with my engine builder and make sure that the head gaskets were put on the correct way.
I guess I can keep my car now :-)
He also said (like you) that a little oil in the manifold won't hurt a thing. He just reminded me that when I take it to the track and step on it to watch the mirror for smoke. He also suggested removing the lower man. and putting the plate on OR get a baffled grommet for the PCV valve. As far as the water pump is concerned, I have a Edelbrock Victor high flow pump but if it isn't turning at the speed it was designed for (due to the pulley) than it's basically a normal flowing pump. Regarding open loop mode, won't the comp. stay in open loop without a thermostat?
And is it true that a lean running motor creates more heat??
