Catch Can/PCV question on cleanest set up
Catch Can/PCV question on cleanest set up This is been beat to death but I am not looking at what's the best system....I am looking for the best and cleanest looking system. I want to have the least amount of hoses in my engine bay and would like to avoid a filter on the valve cover. The engine is a LS2 Twin Turbo. I don't mind the look of bungs welded into the valve covers but does that run to seperate cans and what is the fresh air source, a filter on the valley cover?
I guess I could hide the can somewhere but looking for opinions and pics of set ups that are with little or hidden hoses.

I did an rx catch can, and hell it looks so good I wanna show it off. and its black so it looks factory, and its neat.
it uses 3 hoses from what I remember. But I do use the filter. which looks pretty good IMO. some people recommend venting them both. this video is pretty informative. the mike norris is supposedly a nice one too
I have a RX on anothe car, just trying hide the hoses and avoid the breather on the valve. Can't imagine you could have to long a line to the can, would think the oil would sit in the line??

Verdad Gallardo thanks
i welded the -12 fittings on, i also welded a baffle directly below the hole. i dont get any smoke or oil speckles on my bumper
for oil fill just unscrew one hose, stick funnel in fitting on valve cover
the tank on the head is a degassing/surge tank for the coolant, coolant head ports go to the top of the tank, bottom port on tank goes to pump suction
i enjoy that i never get that wiff or smell of blowby ever

-doesn't catch anything...I guess it's not catching it's just evacuating??
-doesn't work well on anything other than open headers......true, do you have mufflers?
-blast oily mist directly on your o2 sensors possibly cat converter....guess you could evac after the O2 sensors??-not 'legal' emissions-wise.....guess so but my car won't need to test
one line from existing valve cover port
pcv valve exit to intake
sight tube and drain
one way relief valve on top to vent any positive pressure
stock like 'closed' pcv operation without the oil contamination
pm for details
it is hooked in far down stream of the O2s. i have two magnaflow mufflers in series, stocklike quiet. not worried about emmissions where i live.
and i honestly dont care if there is much suction or scavenging effect, i just know it gets rid of my crankcase gasses and i havent had a problem in 3 years and it is on the street 99% of the time
even with hardly any scavenging i see still better than venting to the atmosphere because i never smell it and dont have to have a catch can
