my friends racecar does that after he makes a pass, we're trying to figure out a way to help vent the motor out cause its sucking oil. but he's spraying a big shot.

So what exactly do you do w/ the PCV line itself? Keep it routed as is on a LT1 w/ pcv going into the grommet hole on the DS intake and the other end of that line into the barbed fitting a few inches from the grommet hole? I did mine different but don't know if it'll work. I plugged the barbed hole up w/ a vac cap and the PCV line I attached to a braided hose and ran to the vented catch can. I'm running 3 breathers 2 on the PS VC and one on the DS VC. I can't figure out what to do w/ that PCV itself even though procharger manual says to route that PCV line to inlet side of the blower.
Holy thread resurrection batman......
Those of you who are running you PCV into the compressor inlet, are you running an inline catch-can or some type of inline filter to keep any oil from entering the compressor and the rest of the system? ALso, is the purpose of a breather catch-can to reduce the vaccum so you dont pull more oil into the lines?

Casper electronics makes a screw in breather that goes on the oil cap. It runs about $40 on our site.
