Blow-by and PCV

OK my tired old Slant has some blow by. You can see the smoke coming from the breather. Not bad enough to stop driving, but it will need a rebuild by next year. Which is good because it will take that long to save up enough

Anyway The car has a PCV valve from the factory. It had the basic factory smog, with that weird adjustable thing for vacuum.

That part is busted so I am bypassing it.

I need to know if it is better to run the PCV line to the base of the carb or the line coming out of my intake manifold.

If it's a full vacuum on the carb base (which it should be) the vacuum pressure will be the same on either.

Pick one.
