Oil Flooded Valve Cover

bdMember

The right cylinder bank on my car floods with oil when I rev the engine hard, 6000+ rpm. I suspect the left bank is close to flooding too. The flooding is bad enough to push oil out the valve cover breather. I am not using a PCV valve, just breathers on both cylinder banks. I rebuilt this engine my self and it has always had the problem. As far as I know there is no blockage of the oil drain back passage ways in the cylinder heads. I am running a Melling high volume oil pump and a mechnical roller cam. Anybody out there had a similar problem or have any ideas why this could be happening or what to check? Perhaps the high volume oil pump is the problem?
