I ended up staying with the original valve. The engine is running flawlessly and I haven't experienced one hiccup with this design, so I figured I would keep it running like this to see if there would possibly be any downsides in the long run. This engine seems to be loving the extra vacuum.

One nice little side effect from that is that last year my rear main seal had some very very slight seeping, after this mod and the extra vacuum everything has been bone dry between the engine and transmission. seems like its keeping oil leaks at bay.
