Default stupid pcv.

Pcv ok I am sick of the oil going into the intake and really don't want a catch can. What are the downside of just blocking the pcv line into the tb.

Crank case pressure will build up, and it will have to go some where. Where you ask? Through every gasket... Just add oil and X66 it once in a while (top engine cleaner)....

I have a water seperator inline, the kind thats used on an air compressor. It pulls a **** load of oil out before it goes to the intake. You can pick em up at walmart or sears hardware.

Oil doesn't only go from valve cover to TB it also goes in from PCV tubes to PCV valve into intake, so:
catch can + inline clear fuel filter between VC and TB
Or
LS6 PCV system + inline clear fuel filter between VC and TB

I run the first with a round (NEW) Greddy can and VW filter and I reduced my oil in intake by 98% I would say.
