    Not from the intake. From the PCV that mounts in the lower intake and the valve cover would work I believe.

    Either one from each valve cover, or one from the valve cover and the other from the PCV valve port.

    PCV valve point or from either valve cover is the best way.

    Just stick a pipe nipple that fits snug in the PCV grommet in the intake (3/8" brass 1.5" long pipe extenson from home depot I believe) and slip 1/2" hose over it. Then run a 1/2 or larger hose from each valve cover to the ouke tank. You would end up having to add an additional nipple to the puke tank for the PCV hose to go to. The more pressure relief you have the better. You definitely want to vent each valve cover though.
