Both suffer the problem equally IME.  However, since the ABH puts  300ft/lbs 
of torque vs the PT, I suppose your experience would support the  sloshing 
theory.
 
The fix is to redesign the PCV system so that the pickup is not at the back  
of the head, or delay/shutoff the PCV for 20 seconds with a solenoid valve  
attached to the WOT switch.

if it's really about the head design, I  wonder why the ABH is more 
affected than the PT (that's at least our  experience). And IF it is 
nevertheless the head design, what can be done  against it?
