Default Carb change out

Quick question....I have an Edelbrock currently with power brake booster connects to the back and PCV valve connected to the front off the left side valve cover....I bought a new Quickfuel Black Diamond Q-Series carb but it only has the rear outlet for the power brake booster and didn't notice no front connection when purchasing it...so my question is can I just put a regular breather on The valve cover and leave off the PCV? I have one breather on the right side already....

Thanks.....

Is there a port on your manifold you can access?

My carb doesn't have any ports so.......


I'm not running power brakes so one line is the PCV and the other is a vacuum gauge. I bought that routing hub at Summit, they have single, double and possibly triple port versions.

you could run two breathers and you'll have to adjust your idle.
