Breather cap
I run one of those breathers on the LS1Speed site (although i think its the same one thunder has) I removed my PCV system and never looked back. Its great, the car doesnt burn a drop of oil anymore, as for loss of performance or gas mileage thats BS because I noticed an INCREASE in both. Yes the stock PCV system is better for most cars, but if you are burning alot of oil go to a breather and never worry about it again!!

Glad to see im not the only one who doesnt have a problem with my breather lol. hell my stock PCV system was falling apart and causing a vaccum leak, so it was either get a new PCV system or just run a line from valve cover to valve cover and put a breather where the oill cap goes problem solved.
I was asked for pictures but I dont have any. I dont think it looks like crap. All I did was take my stock oil cap and drill a one inch hole in the top. Bought one of the push in breathers for like $10 and then pushed the breather into the cap. Then I turned the cap over and put some rtv around the area where the rubber meets the plastic of the cap to help hold it in place so you dont see any of the rtv. It works just as good as the speedinc one I would assume as they are doing the same thing.
