PCV systems seem to be never ending, has anyone made a system that elminates the oil in the intake problem?

Whats the drawback of junking the pcv and going with a breather?

Excessive moisture in the oil.

I'm running an air/water separator that works well, but it's from Lowe's, and the bottom of it doesn't totally seal. I need to find a GOOD one, like off a hospital ventilator.

well, if you go with a breather, all that oil that was going in you intake will now go in your breather, and eventaully blow a film of oil out under your hood. That is unless you clean it regularly...

I think i am going to try that 75$ catch can that is floating around in one of these threads...

No PCV is good PCV! I have no problems with my setup.

I've deleted mine as of yesterday. I have a LS6 valley, AMW catch can, and a Metco and still get oil in the intake. New setup has the valve covers connected, LS6 valley connected to the valve cover where the fresh air line was, and a metco on the passenger side. I'll beat on it this weekend and see how it does.

Phil,

THe PCV system on my is not bad. The little in-line fuel filters (indicators) haven't been cleaned since I put them on. They've got about 4k on them now. If there was any oil in the FAST it was probably there from before this setup.

So, 2001+ LS1's do NOT get the LS6 valley cover with the LS6 manifold? I was about to create a threadfor this question.

Showoff, If only us vette guys could be so lucky

Phil I've tried every possible combination, except use of the vacuum pump. Did you vac pump setup not turn out well?

Everything capped and breathers on the valve covers works great...

My vac setup works well, looking for solutions for cars without vac pumps.

I driven 4-5k miles with the breather and connected valave covers with no problem. People speak of oil film but i dont see any. my car drank oil before.

I just took of my intake and found oil. I think it is from rocker bolts or decel. I dont think you can win the oil in the intake thing.

ls1408cp, to use a setup like yours, I'd guess you would either need to have a sheet metal intake or carb style intake like yours in order to have room.
