The PCV valve by virtu of being in the pushrod cover helps to make the sound bigger like a drum skin
This isn't a theory or guess circa 1982 I put a p4b intake on my 1968 GTO removed the q'jet intake I totally forget what carb I used but i plumbed PCV through a front runner and thought i hurt my engine by foreign debris because it was making noise and idle was not as smooth
Since I am not in front of original poster's engine I won't go as far as to say this is his problem but its soooooo EASY and cost nothing to check to eliminate.
