PVC catch can
PVC catch can Do I have to have a return line coming out of the catch can back to the intake or can I just run the line into a catch can with a breather on top? I'm not sure if you need the line back to the intake to help to pull the air through the system.
Hook it up to the intake.
The vacuum being pulled out of the crankcase will help eliminate fumes that break down your oil.
I've also heard that you want the vacuum there to keep your seals from leaking due to having too much pressure in the crankcase. I'm not sure if this is 100% true or not...
Hope this helps

you can put a breather on the catch can, you just have to cap off all the intake connections and the line going from the TB and to the valvecover.
I actually ran a line form the valley cover to a catch can and put a breather on the other side of it, and ripped the whole pcv off and capped it all off.

neither does mine.. which leads me to beleive there are other things at work, happening in the engine to make it do this to the oil. I have changed from 5w-30 to 10w-30 and still have not had ANY issues with oil in my intake manifold. 113k on the STOCK motor.. never taken it appart for head work, or valve work or anything.. all i have done is exhaust and an LS6 intake.. very odd that people have this issue.
