    Bringin’ back the memories! My 1rst car was my Grandfathers 64 Dodge 330 with the push button transmission and a 318 that got great gas mileage & was like a tank. I learned so much about that car with Gramps showing me how to rebuild the master cylinder by hand, doing drum brakes, u joints, exhaust systems, fuel pumps, points - everything on that old car - then doing gas mileage with a slide rule!

    Watching this brings back memories of replacing a rear main in my '56 Ford 272, in my apartment parking lot. It used one of the old "rope" seals, and the replacement kit had the wire puller that allowed you to pull the top half around the crank. What a job!

    Great job. You made it ! FYI (from an old mechanic), It is completely unnecessary to connect the PCV for the engine to run well. (Most cars before 1968 still had NO PCV). Just plug the vacuum source (carb, intake etc.) & let the valve covers vent to the atmosphere. My guess is that you had a stuck or broken ring that pressurized the crankcase, causing exhaust gases to escape the valve covers etc. When you first attempted to plug ALL orifices to the PCV those gases had to escape somewhere & the well worn rear main seal was convenient.

    I bought a 67' Pontiac Catalina four door sedan back in 2014. It ran ok but had a slight miss at higher rpms. Added a Petronix ignition system and it got rid of the miss. Then the front brakes started making terrible noise. Ended up doing a front disc conversion. Went pretty smooth until I went to hook up the lines. Hard lines were rusted and needed replacing. Car sat for four years cause I suck at bending lines. Discovered Inline Tube and bought the pre-bent lines I needed. Car stops on a dime now. Right now I am replacing the blower motor which needs to have the fender removed to do. I have a new aluminium radiator, silicone hoses and belts to do next. Then I need to replace the exhaust then some of the rusted body panels. I salute you for doing this roadtrip fixing the car as you go. I am going to fix all my problems first then roadtrip it.

    I've replaced many a rear main and bearings without dropping the crank etc. on everything from a Ford 841 Diesel tractor to a Pontiac GTO 389 and 400 Cummins engines it's truly a religious experience. But, it can be done. On the bearing you can grind down the head of a brass screw and insert in the crank oil hole and turn the crank and it will hit the bearing and spin it right out and grease the new one up and slide it in the same way.

    Passing along an oil blow by tip: Ran into similar issues in my ‘64 Comet. PCV/catch cans helped a tiny but but the issue was hole placement in the valve cover and NO BAFFLE. Went ahead and installed baffle plates and it drastically reduced the smoke screen. I think the combination of old motor, aftermarket valve covers, roller rockers led to oil just ejecting out of the valve covers. Try a baffle and it could help (part) of your problem.

Wish I still had it, but i sold it to a guy who used it for demo derby because the trans was slipping and I bashed I the right rear wheel well. We didn't have the internet back then, so I didn't know where to get a transmission.
