Default Crankcase evac setups.

Post pics, Diagrams, schematics whatever you have for a good reference to look at. I know most of the higher compression cars that make good power aren't keeping stock style evac canisters. Mine looks to be routed right back into the intake so I am getting oil in the chambers. Trying to avoid this, what do y'all have In mind?

The setup I'm going with is two -10 bungs tigged into the rear of the valve covers to a pair of allstar catch cans on the firewall. No pics yet, but some reading on yellow bullet led me to this.

Cap the intake vacuum port.
Cap the vacuum port on the TB.
Put a small breather on the rear of the drivers side valve cover.
Put a small breather breather on the passengers side port.
Put another small breather on the LS6 valley cover.....or....on the oil fill cap.

Change your oil every 3,000 miles.

Enjoy ONLY fresh air going into your intake and cylinders.....NO OIL.
