just a thought, but the hose that goes to the throttle body from the pass valve cover on boosted aplications, couldnt that be creating pressure to the bottom end under boost? since under normal driving it sucks air out of there so under boost it could be pressurized and maybe thats why some people blow the rear main. thats why sts turns that hose off under boost. that could be why some get the mist to. am i right on this?

i just had my first hard run.it boosted double the 6lb. spring rating with the WG's not yet plumed for control.
i oiled up the windshield a bit from the breather(no hood).i tread 12lbs for a second and backed off.latter we checked the HPT log and we figured a 15 # boost had occurred.![Devil](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_devil.gif)
i started it up latter and all checked out,pressure,fluids,levels.all seems good.hope nothing broke![Icon Confused](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_confused.gif)

That's how I have mine ran. Original lines from both vc's, and another line from zo6 valley cover, to catch can to blower inlet. I recently had my blower hat off and noticed some oil in there. I have a breather on the pass. vc as well just to be safe as I am nervouse about pressurizing the cranckcase. Even tho I don't have a lot of miles on this setup I need to check my catch can to see how much is in there.
