PCV/breather setups for large shots What is everyone doing for PCV setups on 300+ shots?
I have a 383 with a 300 shot and I'm hunting down a nasty rear oil leak that I assume to be a pushed rear main from crankcase pressure.
My current setup is a ls6 valley to catch can to intake (fast 102)
Throttle body is capped
Valve covers run together then T to a large k&n breather.
The valve covers are those aftermarket crinkle painted ones- I don't remember the brand.
Any feedback / suggestions?

I had a catch can as well and it would not relieve the pressure properly. I am just venting to atmosphere through a large filter on a fitting tapped into the oil fill cap. All other vents capped. 200 shot here and daily driver. I know mighty mouse has a decent catch can.
my car leaks like a pig from the rear main on a 200 shot. I had it vented to atmoshpere before the spray but couldnt handle the crank case fumes in the cabin, so i switched back to stock ls1 crank venting.
But now that im on a 200, its not liking it at all. Motor is coming out soon to get sealed up, but i gotta figure something else out before it goes back in.

After talking to some people, I'm going to do a -10 line from each valve cover to a large, dual entry, vented catch can.
Hopefully this is good enough-- if not, it's getting a gz vacuum pump setup I guess.

I'm trying to avoid showing up to work smelling like an engine lol
I run a breather on the oil fill, and a small breather on the drivers side small nipple. I have the hose that runs off the passenger side just vented. No problem as of yet. I daily mine also.
