Blowing oil out both valve covers, dipstick tube ect. I have a PCV tube from the one valvecover to the carb, should i run one from the other side too? can't understand why i'd have so much pressure in there...

You could also try a heavier oil. 10W40 stopped some oil issue I had in a car years ago. On 10W30 it leaked like a sieve, 10W40, no leaks, no blowing oil.

Might try the thicker oil, as the oil pressure drops off to low low when the engine gets up to temp.
