Need to do a real thorough chassis clean and crawl and chase this down.

I don't believe a race car/street-strip car/hot rod should be anywhere near a PCV valve, but that's just my opinion.
Here's the thing....modern ignition systems are so efficient that they will burn the
oil before it has a chance to get on the plugs or even show in the exhaust.
Do you have access to a bore scope? If so, I'd snake it down the plenum and look at the valves. If the valves are clean and the plenum is clean, then the next obvious thing would be piston ring issues. I've seen issues over time with Mahle coated pistons and the rings sticking...
