[QUOTE="Taz, post: 11113219, member: 2127"] I believe you are the one who is a bit off. 1. The PCV line goes into the UPPER Intake, NOT the lower, which on a PD application does NOT see any boost, and is typically under slight vacuum all the time due to intake restrictions, EVEN UNDER WOT. 2. New Edge Cobras were equipped from the factory with check valve PCV’s. And they produced NO boost, so the factory installed a check valve because of the BOOST the car wasn't seeing? 3. That's nonsense. See above. 4. Gee, parts fail, what a revelation. I have an inline catch tank on the driver side, so what’s your point? 5. I have done so, and no, I cannot feel any air being PUSHED out of my heads. As I stated earlier, if air or anything else is being PUSHED out of your heads, your motor is in serious need of a rebuild. Probably because the last nimrod who owned it was as knowledgeable as you about engines. 6. See # 1 above. Let me run this down for you ONE MORE TIME: I don’t have any oil being sucked into the UPPER intake under vacuum (or forced in under pressure - LOL), because I have a SEALED catch tank on the driver side that traps all the blowby goop that makes it past the valve. It’s DRY on that side. I have NO check valve on the passenger side, and my inlet tube and throttle body have been BONE DRY since I bought the car new in ’01. No droplets when it was N/A and none with a PD blower. This is strong EVIDENCE that no blowby is being PUSHED out the passenger side cam cover. Esta claro? I have been wrenching on cars since LONG before you were even a gleam in your father’s eye. Mostly domestics, but a few of the Italian, German and Swedish Euro-trash cars, as well. I haven’t lost a patient yet, so I’m fairly confident that I know my way around an engine bay and how Tab A inserts into Slot B. All this crap was asked and answered and hashed out YEARS ago. I’ve been around this forum since my car was new, because back then, there was actually some useful information being exchanged, instead of a bunch of conjecture and ridiculous fantasy. Why don’t you noobs do a little RESEARCH before you start spouting off about how things are? And stop spreading BAD information. WHAT??? You said WHAT? :??: That is truly one of the more absurd statements in this entire thread. If blowby is getting into your inlet tube from the passenger side head, you WILL see it on the inside of the tube and in the throttle body. Period. Mine is bone dry over there, so I'd want to install a catch can on that side to catch the oil mist that I'm NOT getting, right? :nonono: [/QUOTE]
