Tried everything. I also put my old Edelbrock vc's on yesterday and covered the hole with a peice of cloth......it works perfectly. The vc breathers I have decided to go with are the So Cal 90 degree side mounts....thanks 67cheby. They look the best. After all the research it seems that this is the only real solution and the install can be reversed with a little welding if someone wanted to remove them and fill the holes on the vc's. They will be mounted at the end of the vc's closest to the firewall. So now I need to get rid of the baffled air breather inserts in pic 2.
