PCV & brake check valve-share?
I have my brake check valve vacuum hooked up to a fitting at the back of my RPM Airgap manifold. I am wanting to hook up a PCV in the valve cover (No carb vac port available) Can the fitting in the manifold be shared using a T fitting with the PCV & brake booster? Am wondering if there are issues with vacuum to brake booster sharing vacuum to PCV.
Thanks

I'm currently looking at the same situation. What I'm worried about is that if I try to foot-brake it at the strip, the brakes won't hold. My solution was to run a line from the PCV to a crankcase vent filter in the bottom of the air cleaner like my old 89 Caprice had and use the only vacuum port to fully supply the brakes.
