Default How your supposed todo your PCV system

Well i'm sick of all these threads, this is how you do it, no breathers blah blah unless you have crank case air problems (then u got other problems)

anyways for your valve cover get a purolator breather filter.. flows both ways and has a screen to stop oil fumes... http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductD...tnumber=B23165

for your PCV on the side of your manifold going to your throttle body get a husky or another inline compressor catch can (used to catch water for compressors) and some 3/8 fittings then put that somewhere inthe line between your manifold and TB

that's all I have to say lol thats how GM did it but improved on it.. so oil WONT get back into your intake I don't take all/any credit i got this from a few threads

Well looking at the purolator its fareuly obvious but ya never know I like the idea though, hows it fit with the 94 since the 94 pcv makes a quick u-turn? maybe I should convert to a 95 style pcv?

^^ it goes in the pass side valve cover and runs to the TB!

Would that thing fit on the vette valve covers? The hole is on the side of the cover facing the intake manifold on those. Not much room for that big round part.

And I cut the bottom part that sticks down on the purolator filter so it can actually get some flow since the side entrances were blocked by the gromet.

I dont think so. But if Purlator makes one of these filters, they probably have many different ones available.
