I have a 1956 Crown Victoria with the 292 yblock which I will be having a shop rebuild. I know that there are numerous posts about how to convert from the road draft tube to a pcv system, but I have a hard time visualizing the advice being given. Some have pictures that  show the installed pcv installed with the vacuum hose attached to the valve but not where the other end is connected to. So I need advice on installing the best possible pcv system for my particular setup.

I want to block off the opening at the road draft tube. I have the aluminum finned thunderbird valve covers that I would rather not hack into if possible. I will have the Mummert aluminum valley pan with the rear opening for a pcv system. I have a Holley 1848-1 4 barrel carb that does not have a vacuum source inlet. I know there are carb spacers with a vacuum inlet that can be used with this pcv modification. I am also installing a brake booster with a dual master cylinder that will need a vacuum source. I have a vented oil fill cap. My original oil bath cover has been converted to use a paper filter.

What would be my best option for installing a pcv system with this setup? Thanks in advance for the assistance.
