Wow nice product and great read I saved it to my ibooks library- thanks

The problem I have is that there is no fitting before the throttlebody ...just the two in the intake.

I bought this fitting that replaces the oil cap on my LS valve cover. It simply screws on, just like my oil cap, has an o-ring for a leakproof seal, and doesn't require any welding or fabrication. It has a -10 outlet which allows you to route a -10 hose over to your catch can, or separator. Check out the link...

Here's something that shows how important these are for boosted engines.

These are the ones I'm using for my motor. I just hope my oil never looks like that!

That sounds like something a girl would say.... That's not a "problem" - that's just an item that could be easily rectified with a bit of hot rodding... You know - like taking some stuff apart and adding whatever is needed! LOL

So I have read a lot about crankcase ventilation and decided to try venting both valve covers to filtered catch cans. Hope this works!

That's the direction I'd go.... Try to use -12 lines and fittings if you can. Let the air out!!

DO NOT oil the little K&N style filter! It needs to flow freely.

Thanks I know all about taking things apart and putting it back together my way! Lol
