Default excessive smoking out of vent on valve cover after a pull.

as the title says , after i do a hard pull i get smoking out of my oil breather vents on my valve cover. its fine if im just cruising around but after a pull it smokes for a good 10 seconds like enough to come out from under the hood through he cowl.i got my passenger and driver side valve covers vented. whats going on and is there a fix to it?

any boosted motor will move vapors but if you see puffing then you have issues

Only after hard pull I'm guessing you are building up crankcase vapors.
And those do take a moment to get out if venting naturally.
Blow by would be more inline if it's puffing out the valve cover just at idle or cruising.

All those crank vapors have to go some where.
