PCV question?

I am fixing to install a metco breather and i was wondering what i needed to do to my pcv setup. Also do i need to a catch can to or will the breather be good enough?

This ain't the home depot forums. It's PCV (positive crankcase ventlation).

Just giving you crap man.

I'd route the pcv system through a catch can then into the intake to remove any oil that might get in there.

I would do the valve cover breather and a PCV catch can.

you dont want to run it back to the intake (it will pressurize), you want to run it back to the blower inlet or leave it open to the atmosphere

That's why you use the check valve that comes with most kits. If not order one.

oh ok i thought you implied to just run the line to the intake also fwiw powerdyne doesn't come with a valve. but either way discussed will work.
