Default Crankcase Ventilation

I'm considering running hoses from my Moroso Chrysler style valve cover breathers to the tubes that already exist in my headers, with a check valve. A friend told me to be careful as he knew someone who did this and literally sucked all the oil out of his motor.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, Kurt

Do your valve covers have baffles in them under the breathers?

I have a friend who runs a dyno and that setup creates horsepower.......and I figured it wasn't hard for me to do it since the pipe is already installed in my headers.
