LS1 vacuum and PCV ? Is there any difference between the vacuum on LS1 truck vs. LS1 fbody engines that would account for the "new" PCV valve# 12572717 being designed for "truck LS1 engines only" ?
Please experts, there are lots of folks using this new PCV valve on their fbodies to reduce oil consumption. We need good info.
As far as I know, there is no significant difference in vacuum that would make the new hollow PCV not work on an fbodied car.
Speak up if you know something !

Re: LS1 vacuum and PCV ? I dont have an exact yes no answer, but i do know pcv flow rate effects idle speed.Improper system operation could create oil leakage from gaskets/seals.
